IMDb plot summary: Two victims of traumatized childhoods become lovers and psychopathic serial murderers irresponsibly glorified by the mass media.
Directed by Oliver Stone. Starring Woody Harrelson, Juliette Lewis, Tom Sizemore, and Robert Downey, Jr.
This is a wildly stylistic movie but I don't know if it's actually good. Its style feels more than a little gimmicky, and then just becomes kind of irritating in the final third of the movie which is just nonstop shooting in a way that is not interesting to watch for me. There are some good moments -- Juliette Lewis is particularly excellent as Mallory -- but there's a lot that falls a little short for me, especially when I think it tries to actually make a point about media celebrities.
