Dave: And no one came to help old Dave then. Dave had to pretend to be somebody else.
Celeste: You mean, all those years ago… when you were a little boy, Dave?
Dave: Dave’s dead. I don’t know who came out of that cellar, but it sure as shit wasn’t Dave!
Mystic River (2003), directed by our boy Clint Eastwood, is classified as a neo-noir film.
It's a 10/10, but make no mistake — it’s fucking intense! Watch it only when you’re mentally prepared to dive into something dark and emotionally heavy.
The story unfolds artfully and deliberately, trusting the audience’s intelligence rather than spoon-feeding every detail. It draws you in, making you deeply invested in the story.
A flawless 10/10 — as you’d expect from anything with or by Clint Eastwood!
