Night Crawler with Jake Gyllenhaal was one fantastic movie.

The best movie about a sociopath I have seen. Really realistic. Particularly how he convinces people always to do exactly what he wants them to do.

I thought Gyllenhaal and Russo should have gotten Oscar nominations. I would even nominate it for Best Picture.

and we'll done when he was explaining why they should date. Like her needs didn't picture in any way in his decision to date except to give him a munitions to control her. Of course sociopaths are not so blatantly open with their manipulations in my experience. But they had to show what was going on in his head, so they put it in the dialogue.

I say delicious because it was not a 'formula' type of movie where you can guess what is going to happen. It was shocking to see such raw depravity.

did to his female producer is rare to see on film. Plus I'm on meds so only the really novel gets a reaction from me these days.
