He Wasn't Trying To Make Godfather


Or Goodfellas, or Casino, or anything else that people expected it to be. This is Chandor's take on the quiet, subtly tense dramas of the 70s and 80s, like All The President's Men, Chinatown, etc. And boy did he succeed. Great film that was simply a victim of its own marketing.

I enjoyed it so much. I miss this kinda subtle story-telling. I am sick and tired of Hollywood's empty showy movies.
