Under the Silver Lake

David Robert Mitchell, USA 2018, 139’
If Beale Street Could Talk Never Rarely Sometimes Always

Follow Sam, who at first is trying to find a girl, only to discover a worldwide conspiracy involving cult movies, Hollywood locations, old songs and maps in comic books. This is a fiendishly convoluted and at the same time brilliantly simple work on pop-cultural obsessive-compulsive disorder.

‘Under the Silver Lake’ David Robert Mitchell's trippy L.A. noir is at once seductive and baffling, as Andrew Garfield plays a geek going down a rabbit hole of Mystery. (Variety)
