Brick - 2005 (review) - Video Monsters

What this episode covers

In another installment for Noir-vember, tonight's episode is a review of Brick - an amazing neo-noir film from 2005 that stays true to classic noir, but with a unique take on the genre as it centers around high school students. While it might seem a bit silly to think of high school students in a noir film, Rian Johnson's masterful script and direction bring you into the world that he created in a way that makes even the most absurd aspects seem completely natural.
