Review of Crime Wave

Crime Wave (1985)
10/10
A glimpse into the mind of an artist
24 September 2000
I've seen this brilliant film at least ten times, and always marvel at the way director John Paizs captures the ambition, self-doubt, and frustrations of artists. I'm a professional artist myself, and find it hard not to identify with Stephen Penny, a quiet man, who aspires to be the greatest color crime movie maker in the world.

Beautiful, touching, weird, inspiring, and fall-down funny!

One of the best films about the artistic process ever. For everyone who ever dreamed of reaching THE TOP!
