Post Re: Lonely Hearts
This is a pretty decent Emmett/Furla production of the "Lonely Hearts Killers" of the 40s, and one I was not even aware was made until a few weeks ago. It's a great find, with a stellar cast too. Travolta is cool here. He's also big. Like, James Gandolfini big. And Gandolfini is in this too, so you can compare! Both of them are detectives, and I enjoyed their chemistry especially with Scott Caan's younger, annoying brother-type at play too. Jared Leto is probably the standout even though it's not as over-the-top or committed as it could have been. He just nicely fits that sneaky, thin, psycho type. Hayek is underused here but I don't know the extent of her character's participation so maybe it is accurate. She's fucking nuts, though. She gives Leto a blowjob then immediately after gives a cop a blowjob too. And she's all about the psychological game, twisting Leto's mind so he'll kill more and more women.
