Missing Person


      It's a while since we have seen a better portrayal of an alcoholic private detective than by Michael Shannon in Noah Buschel's 2009 washed-out Noir. For me it's a shade Coenesque and even hints occasionally at Willeford humour. Amy Ryan is also great in an understated background role and as IMDB reviewer Grady Harp says there's a missing person in most of us.
