Blue Ruin

[Mark Thibodeau]

I thought it was... okay. Don't see the "noir" aspect though, as it's
anything but stylish/stylized. It felt more verite' to me. Noir
doesn't just mean grim and depressing with an all but silent anti-hero
now, does it?

I preferred his Green Room, but then again, I like watching Nazis die
horrible deaths.
