Blow Out1981

I had started this movie a while back and reminded myself to finish it after watching Snake Eyes last night. Movies like this reinvigorate the mystery genre and give it a whole new life. The kind of story that could only be told on film. John travolta is so good here. He constantly looks defeated and exhausted and you just want justice for him. The shot of Jack holding Sally under the fireworks to Jack sitting alone in the snow carries so much emotion and weight and the tragic grimness of that final scene is heartbreaking. Truly a masterpiece. Mysteries Ranked
