With all the to-do over Todd Haynes's Six Dylans in Search of an AuthorI'm Not There, the cinetrix is a little surprised not to be hearing a bit more about Todd Solondz. You know, the Todd who pulled this particular parlor trick first, in Palindromes? Now, I long ago wearied of the latter Todd, but credit where credit's due, people.
If you're tired of both Todds too, or are after an hour and 39-minute palate cleanser this holiday, feel free to click on Fritz Lang's Der Müde Tod, above. Don't have that kind of time? Fast-forward to about minute 26, or watch this riff on Lang's climactic scene, instead.
