series Sunshine Noir
Directed by William Friedkin | 1985
With William Petersen, Willem Dafoe, John Pankow
“First-rate. The direction is the key.”
—Roget Ebert
William Friedkin’s hyper-stylized neo-noir plays like Miami Vice on amphetamines. The pulp premise—which has two Secret Service agents (Petersen and Pankow) hell-bent on nailing a villainous counterfeiter (Dafoe)—is pushed into overdrive by the sleek visuals, a synthy New Wave soundtrack by Wang Chung, and a pulse-pounding, against-traffic car chase down a congested LA freeway.
