Ready for his close-up in the 90s action comedy I caught the stolenAustin Butler frames the camera in person looking at it many times. His soulful eyes are a clear window into his unfortunate character Hank Thompson.
Based on the 2004 novel, directed by Darren Aronofsky and written by Charlie Houston, the film wisely uses Butler’s cherubic face and strap physicality to solidify Hank’s beliefs as a former high school star baseball player.
His girlfriend Yvonne is a cocky paramedic played by Zoe Kravitz, and even gives a speech about how lovely Hank is. The film also captures the chemistry of the stars, cementing the emotional bond between Hank and Yvonne, through true compassion and cute shared catchphrases between each other.
They simply undress from the other side of his bed and show off the pair who keeps eye contact constantly, joining more sensually in hot love scenes that raise the heat. Hank and Yvonne are not officially official, but they are clearly committed and have each other’s backs.
That’s one of the things Hank does for him. After he comes to search for his punk rocker neighbour Russ (Matt Smith), he finds him when he is separated into a flameless, life and death gangster situation.
Scramble, problem-solving, his deep Hanklace was followed by pugnasious Goons Pavel (Nikita Kushkin) and Alexei (Yurikoro Kolnikov), Hasid’s gang brothers Lipa (Rif Schreiber), Schmley (Vincent d’Onofrio), Latin Enforcer Colorada (Vincent de Carader (Vincent de Calader), Schmley (Vincent d’Ocasio), and NYPD detective Roma (Regina King) chased him for murder.
The body begins to fall quickly on this caper, often accompanied by pathologically interesting timing. But while the film always plays with a sudden, laughing at the violence of dull forces, Butler takes these events seriously, as if reflecting an unprotected sensibility.
It’s in the eyes, but not just. Death is important in Hank’s world. He is plagued by repeated nightmares of accidents that ended the prospect of playing professional ball.
Now he’s fighting for his life, but the courtesy of this crazy, crazy cop and criminal chases him. And the film cleverly maintains most of its mystery through wise plot.
There is also the benefit of wise casting. Drory funnier Griffin Dunn as Paul, the boss and back-up bar owner of Hank, adds an A-1 for anyone who knows Martin Scorsese Out of business hours, NE Plus Ultra Any Cango or any comedy, here is a clear inspiration.
Similarly, both films share a colorful vision of New York City’s underground as an odd alternative universe in itself. Promoted by Hank’s desperate attempts, slowly pulling himself out, and every time he sinks deeper, I caught the stolen Spiral into confusion at the rapid pace on the right.
Leave the Oscar-winning Schmaltzfest WhaleAronofsky skillfully tunes the heartbeat of the film’s comedy and action, sprinkling bouts of bloody violence and tense dramatic scenes well-acted by this capable cast.
Butler is his most persuasive in a simple scene in which Hank is called to the house by his California baseball-loving mother. Especially in moments of uncertainty, he wants to let her know that he is ready to be accountable for past mistakes. If he can regain control of his destiny, he will assure her. If he could abolish it again, he might still have a future.
