Hollywoodland 7.2

I was impressed mostly by the actual authentic noir nature of the film. There have been recent films that have claimed to be neo-noir films but most have not really lived up to the billing. Albeit the film was shot in color; it still managed to encapsulate a number of prevalent concepts present in the films of bogart, et al. The films cinematography screamed Chinatown and the lead female was developed heavily from the classic, Sunset Boulevard.
Im fairly particular about the ways films are put together and there were a few parts of the film that dont fit quite as well as they could have. For example, I liked how they connected the two lead males through the way the story was told but I also think they poorly timed the switching from one story to the next at improper times.
Barring a few minor things, I was really impressed by the film. The ending was well set up in my opinion.
