In Reply to: I thought Tres Lounge sucked big time - I like Buscemi & was expecting more. NT posted by PdL on September 21, 2004 at 15:46:24:
Buscemi shined in movies like Reservoir Dogs and Fargo, and most of his others too. But I guess it is the overall realistic portrayal of "low life" that is done in a slow and methodical fashion that makes Trees Lounge a success with the critics. It takes the time to drive home the point. Just like Reservoir Dogs and Freeway and Fargo, it was a very good "low life" movie.
Follow Ups:
I agree with your Buscemi comments.... although I think a movie like Barfly does a better job at portraying low life alcoholics than Trees Lounge. Or maybe TL was just too slow for me and I got bored.... been quite a while since I saw it but I definatly recall being let down.
