Film Frenzy

Matt Brunson

The first -- and, surprisingly, more interesting -- section focuses on the efforts of the law (represented mainly by Henry Fonda’s straight arrow) to find this madman.

Robin Holabird

Ruskin provides a plausible scenario in a well-mounted period piece that holds attention without causing much excitement.

Formally exciting with its use of split screen, narrow framings, impressionistic editing and performances.
