Doctor's Orders (2021)
Excellent, fascinating character study of desperate people
This is a smart movie about some not-so-smart people ... but what a find this central character is!! At first glance he's as slimy as the situation, but his candor and volubility combine slowly to show a smart man with a twisted moral core who ends up making some surprisingly moral choices. Stay with it, this is a sleeper.
Sleepy Hollow (1999)
Warning: This is a plug!
OK, I'll be honest. I've seen the film, but I'm too close to it to submit an objective review. I've written the novelization, and I'd just like to suggest that if you enjoyed the movie, read the book! It includes scenes cut from the film, some of which explain confusing plot points. (You'll also see a few places where the final film diverged from the original screenplay.) An added bonus is Washington Irving's original story, reprinted so you can read the original inspiration. Hope you like it. Let me know what you think.
