🎬 La Haine (1995, Mathieu Kassovitz)
Shot entirely in stark black and white, this film uses monochrome as a statement, not a gimmick. The absence of color sharpens contrast, tension, and emotion, turning the banlieues into a timeless landscape of anger, silence, and inevitability. Black and white becomes the film’s moral language.

Still one of my all-time top-ten movies. That cast, that cinematography, that soundtrack...

This evening's viewing, a blast from the past, early Bruce Willis comedy-crime caper Hudson Hawk. It has a "troubled" history, lots of problems, but also some daft fun moments, Danny Aiello, a bonkers Hugh Grant, & Andie McDowell as a spy-nun. Haven't seen this in decades...

After considering today's Blu-ray haul from Fopp, I decided this evening's viewing would be old-school, 90s, French style over substance with early Luc Besson flick, Nikita, with Anne Parillaud in her Little Black Dress (& enormous gun).
Years since I last saw this. The uber-cool Jean Reno also makes an appearance, as does Betty Blue star, Jean-Hugues Anglade.
