How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A languorous, jazz-scored mystery that drifts through 1970s Los Angeles corruption and moral ambiguity with the weariness of a detective who no longer trusts anyone. Marlowe's investigation becomes a portrait of a man caught between loyalty and the dawning realization that nothing, and no one, is what it seems.
