Alphaville: A Good One



An absurd avant-garde sci-fi noir film, Alphaville is filled with fedoras and overcoats and synchronized swimmers who drown firing squad victims. Shot in beautiful black and white; it's poetic, surreal, and lovely. This film reminded me of The Tree Of Life, and I almost felt bad for The Tree Of Life as it will never be the film Alphaville is. Again, I almost felt bad but that's impossible as I'm incapable of feeling guilt. I watched it on Netflix because I have 200 movies in my queue and they ain't gonna watch themselves. Here's a clip:
