“You’ve got a nasty reputation, Mr. Gits.

I like that.”

Superbly crafted film. Every cut. Every frame. Every eerie scene counts. A classic Robert Towne screenplay. You can feel the rot and decadence. In the way John Huston talks. In the seen it-all face of a private dick who hasn’t seen anything yet. Evil is personal and political and pervasive. And (quietly now) what a lot of fun this movie is.
