Synopsis: A well known author goes missing and a mysterious detective attempts to track him down
The Good: It wasn’t what I was expecting from the description but it was still really good. The whole mystery of it. Fanning is always great, the atmosphere was cool. It has a great progression.
The Bad: Just once, I want to see a film about writers that’s realistic. No huge advances, no major awards, no impossibly expensive apartments. It’s such a tired cliche’.
Best Line: …it dawned on me, looking out at all of those wonderful city lights, that I was just one of those millions of city lights, a tiny little pixel, buried within the white noise of life, blinking on for just a brief second in time.’
Fun Fact: Logan Lerman was said to have been cast as the titular protagonist because he was the only actor who could convincingly portray Sidney Hall in all of the featured stages of his life. – IMDb
