Shadow Hours (2000)
8/10
A great mood piece.
19 July 2005
Warning: Spoilers
I have yet to watch the entire film -- yet. I keep on catching it on Showtime at like 2:00 in the morning. I have Comcast, and I wish that they would just release the damned film on On-Demand, so that I could see it at a reasonable hour (i.e., on MY time, instead of DURING "shadow" hours...)

:)

Anyway, the thing that moved me about the piece was the mood, plain and simple. I love Peter Weller's performance in this flick. He was the only thing that caused me to name a song of my own after the film -- Shadow Hours. I may even title an album of mine using that name (if anyone cares or doesn't know this, you can name a work anything that you want to -- without worrying about "copyright" infringement. Titles are not copyrightable. Period.)

:)

Again -- a worthy viewing. I agree with the most recent submission here -- yes, the story line isn't original, and yes, Michael Mann is a better director than most anyway. I just got a kick out of Weller's character and characterizations.

Ciao.
