Ali looks pretty strong here. After winning the SAG, and giving a pretty memorable speech, he's got the actors, and the only, seeming, competition he really had (Aaron Taylor-Johnson won the Golden Globe for Nocturnal Animals) didn't even get nominated. Patel did win the BAFTA, and the BA"
My Movie Diary 2017 (217 movies items)" 14 January. Tom Ford's Nocturnal Animals is a heavy one. It gives new meaning to the word revenge. A visually intoxicating movie that shouts greatness but is also hard to embrace which makes it a modern noir unlike any other. Whether that's a good thing or not, the movie challenges, and the performances are gripping. A cult movie waiting for its time. "
2017 Movie Diary
“Tom Ford’s directorial debut, A Single Man, was an emotionally engrossing story told with visual flourish and a series of strong, effecting performances. Something similar could be said about his follow-up, Nocturnal Animals. While his debut was a beautiful film, this one is aesthetically beautiful while surrounding a pulpy, trashy narrative. Your mileage for vary for the grotesquery and emotional evisceration on display, but I think of this as a minor trashterpiece. Maybe even a major one if I revisit in a few years. There’s a few timelines going on here, two happening in reality, and the third a meta-narrative of one character’s book-within-the-film.

30 Favorite Films of 2016 (30 movies items)"Well, here's another film that makes the thought of being in a relationship terrifying. Tom Ford's follow up to A Single Man, Nocturnal Animals is a huge step forward for the fashion-designer-turned-filmmaker. Initially, I felt that maybe it was a case of style over substance, until a second viewing showed just how complex and devilishly intense it actually is. A piercing, brutal, and bitter exploration of cruelty in relationships. How certain decisions we make, especially when it involves anoth"

Movies the giraffe watched in 2017: January (30 movies items)"First viewing - Jan. 2nd I decided to start the year off with Tom Ford's Nocturnal Animals, and it took me 2 tries to get it watched. I originally went the night of the 1st, but the couple sitting in front of me chose to ignore the movie & carry on a conversation which invaded my enjoyment & derailed me from following the exposition. Since I'm no longer in the land of Drafthouse (a fact that makes me more sad all the time), I had to leave my seat to make a complaint & by the time I reached the "
