movie review - In the Shadow of the Moon

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

This is, at first glance, a murder investigation. But the trail of the killer goes dead when she falls in front of a subway and is killed. Then years later she shows up again, and the killings resume with the same tell-tale marks on each victim's neck. The same detective becomes involved in the second series of killings, and to everyone's dismay it seems to be the same killer. Sooner than you can say "time traveler with an agenda"* the cop is himself stepping through the gate.

Recommended. For that kind of night when you've had that kind of day and just need a little space between you and reality. I think you know what I mean.

*Is there any other kind? Time travel has always seemed like the most ridiculous .. wishing.
