It?s more about excusable or not excusable flaws.

?I?m trying weird stuff all over the place in order to achieve greatness and some of it doesn?t work? = a flaw I can accept
?I?m adding full up scenes to steal some of your brain time and also why not try to get women to watch this show? = a flaw I can understand but not forgive

La denonciation (1962) - 7/10. A film producer (Maurice Ronet) is witness to a murder. Rather than collaborate with the police, however, he investigates on his own in an attempt to expiate a failure from his past. Film noir a la le nouvelle vague, if you will. Written and directed by Jacques Doniol-Valcroze.

L'odore della notte (1998) - 7/10. A cop (Valerio Mastandrea) turns to crime because it pays better and it's more fun. Once he builds his crew it turns into a kind of Italian Goodfellas, without the killings, but with plenty of ultraviolence. Visually the film is a failure--every scene is photographed with the same ridiculous lighting. Somebody called Little Tony does a cameo.

Time Table (1956) - 6/10. Good premise squandered. Great to see Mark Stevens as a bad guy, but the reveal comes too soon, and the running gun battle at the end is ridiculous. Also, too much dumpy wife, not enough Felicia Farr.
