You may not give a damn about what I'm watching through Netflix, but I didn't blog in the month of May, so I'm just going to throw everything against the wall...

At first, I didn't like it. The characters are not believable, the dialogue is preposterous, but then I reminded myself that it was a genre movie. It's a Film Noir. It has all the trappings one would expect from a noir: a dead girl, a hard-boiled detective, a femme fatale, twists, turns, angles and campy Dashiell Hammett style dialogue. It just happens to be set in a high school.
