It was an absolute tour de force, but not to everybody's taste. The titular Sin City is a dark place, full of violence, danger and tawdry sex. But it's also got its share of nobility and ethics, in a weird sorta way. The "tour de force" part is in the casting (by Rodriguez and Miller), the performances (directed by Miller), and the technological cutting-edge nature of the filmmaking. There were no sets. The entire film was shot in green screen, with all of the backgrounds added later. And you can't tell the difference. Rodriguez is an inter- esting filmmaker, one of my absolute favorites. And yeah, lurk...little Nancy Callahan certainly grew up. :-) To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'
