Black Snow

Just started watching this. I’m pretty sure that judging from the first scene with the girl riding a beach cruiser in her nightgown this is going to be stupid and bad. The second scene with our hero begging someone to beat him is ridiculous. Cinematography is poor. The two tracks they’ve played so far have been terrible. Another stupid scene with lady standing in front of corn field with the sound of train going by… then stupid mom daughter prayer scene. Whoever filmed this needs to go back to film school most of the shots are backlit and you can barely see the actors faces. Some of the audio is so bad it seems like it’s dubbed. More cheesy bad (aboriginal?) music. Twenty minutes in and I think I’ll leave it on. I was looking for something to play in the background and this fits the bill. So I finished it. Not a very interesting mystery. It was watchable but if you have better things to do you can easily skip it, I hope this is not the best sample of aboriginal music because it was all really awful.

Not in my wheelhouse but found it just odd enough to enjoy. Big fan of Fimmel and the abrupt sound score kept me interested. Not all the characters worked but the story flowed pretty good.
