Hit Man: Desire, Identity, and the Lies We Tell Ourselves

from The Film Talk Hosted by Jett Loe and Gareth Higgins

Is Richard Linklater's Hit Man a buoyant comedy with a dark little void at its center, or are Jett and Gareth watching two entirely different movies? Their disagreement opens a conversation about desire, performance, identity, self-invention, Crimes and Misdemeanors, Bad Lieutenant, and the stories people tell themselves in order to keep going.
