"Maybe I'll just sit here and bleed at you."
We loved Brick. Plain and simple. Brandon got a little crazy for it, and I think it affected him in the same way Gone Baby Gone affected me, because he just kept exclaiming how good it was the whole time we were watching it. He also had either forgotten or just didn't realize it is really a modern, high school film noir, with Joseph Gordon-Levitt as the detective trying to solve the mystery of his ex girlfriend's disappearance. Every character is quirky and shady, and has something to hide. The language and the strange clues leading him deeper down the rabbit hole are all so engaging that you really have to pay attention to keep everything straight, but it's well worth it.
