Chinatown (1974)
Noah Cross: You see, Mr. Gittes, most people
never have to face the factthat at the right time and the right place,
they're capable of ANYTHING.
The masterpiece Chinatown is turning 50 in June and Paramount is doing the wise thing and dropping the film on a beautiful 4K remastered edition for the anniversary -- pre-order it right here. It really looks like the edition to have -- not only is it loaded with the usual kinds of special features (as if the film itself isn't all the special feature one needs) but the set also includes Jack Nicholson's 1990 sequel The Two Jakes, which he directed on top of reprising his role of the notorious private dick Jake Gittes. I know its reputation isn't a shadow of the original film's, but I can't remember whtether I have ever seen The Two Jakes or not -- if I did it was decades ago when I was too young to really pay attention. Have you seen it?
