Review of Twixt

Twixt (2011)
4/10
A Tale Full of Make Up, Signifying Nothing
8 November 2013
Francis Ford Cuppola is one of the greatest wine and film makers that makes both wine and film. Yeah, so, there's that going for the film. Also? The cast - well, they picked up a paycheck and delivered the goods. What's left is the story, which is one of those personal indulgences that means a great deal to a semi-retired Godbots like Cuppola, and nothing to the rest of us.

In a nutshell, it makes no sense. I mean, genuinely, this movie is full of arty pretensions, but in the end has no message whatsoever. But it's very well filmed. Who doesn't love desaturated film accented with After Effects channels? And Bruce Dern. No one screws with Bruce Dern.
