This movie is so stylish.


I love the lighting the dark lighting over the traffic cops.

I'm from Paris... TEXAS

Reminded me of when I saw David Lynch's "Lost Highway" on the big screen (I guess nowadays we'll have to clarify by saying, "in a movie theater").

There's a scene where Robert Blake is in a very dark hallway, talking to Bill Pullman, IIRC, and you can just... barely... detect his face in the black shadows. I thought, "Now there's a perfect example of a skilled cinematographer's control of light on film, if ever there was."

It does look really good, filmed well and a good movie overall. Clint kinda looks hot as Harry in this one too. Just a really exciting, good looking film.
