Nobel Son (2007)
10/10
Still Current and Cool in 2016...Outside of Harry Potter..my favorite Alan Rickman Character!
21 March 2016
Recently, the loss of Alan Rickman reminded me of how perfect he was in this film, and as a result, how much I love the film.

If you like movies that continually surprise you with twists and turns, you will love every part of Nobel Son. Though the film was released nearly a decade ago, if it came out this week..it would feel brand new. It has high tech story telling, an edgy and cool soundtrack, and terrific performances from its ensemble cast...one of those being the always cool Eliza Dushku. You would also be hard pressed to find anything like what I consider to be the most memorable scene of the film..which involves a shopping mall and a car. Once you see the scene i'm referencing..you'll see what makes this a must watch film!

As a side note...if you were ever a fan of a short lived TV Show called October Road..you'll be in for a reunion of sorts, with two of its stars Bryan Greenberg and Lindy Booth appearing in the film.

Bottom Line..If you haven't seen it..give it a try, if you have..try it again. It makes you remember the great talent we lost this year, but in many ways it also feels like it always had an eye on the future!
