I was maybe twenty minutes into Bringing Out the Dead when I had the thought: how in the holy hell did I miss this when it was new? Furthermore, how did I keep missing it in the twenty-plus years since? This movie is exactly my kind of thing and even at age 17, when it released, it would have been the kind of dark dreamy experience I'd have pushed on every friend who would let me.
Scorsese + Paul Schrader…
