Night Moves 4K 1975

Night moves, say, could be detective adventures of Hackman's hero - profession and genre oblige, but I don't believe that Arthur Penn dreamed of such an interpretation of the title of his brainchild, where the word combination “nite mooves” is probably closer to amorous walking to the left. It means that most of the characters in this movie will cheat on each other black and white, without asking names and without changing the sheets, starting from Hackman himself (however, he can do it - the woman he loves is tumbling not God knows with whom) and ending with a very young Melanie Griffith, noted by the adorable fact - for the first success in the movie she did not need any clothes.

Heroine Griffith something like Nabokov's Lolita, gathered to outdo her unbridled stepmother on the number of lovers. And the account she decided to open by running away from home in an unknown direction. And all would be nothing, but the girl is barely 16 years old - here not even her own mother worried and hired a private investigator. The latter, of course, will have a difficult job - to trace a long trail of promiscuous boyfriends, to go so on the fidgety herla. However, for Hackman do not worry, give us to understand the authors of the movie - a former athlete and all that, for him it is just a spit. The question is in another - whether the “French liaison” will be able to resist a charming nymphet and her 'newfangled mother', because, as one of the characters of the movie said, if he were not well - 'There is nothing better than to fuck mother and daughter at the same time'.

It's no secret that 'Night Moves' is a neo-noir: its plot feints are nostalgic for the original. In all other respects, the described picture was remembered by the majority of viewers, not so much as the second collaboration between Penn and Hackman (after “Bonnie and Clyde”), and not even by the fact that it glimpsed the smeared with fuel oil face of James Woods, but as a very subtle and elegant work of the master, deeply exploring the nature of evil, as such, having in addition in its asset unexpectedly bloody ending, however, very justified.
