Todays film is a genré film with a twist.

And a turn.

Jim Jarmusch' vampire film

Only Lovers Left Alive (2014)

The beautiful Tom Hiddleston, Tilda Swinson and John Hurt provide historical context to what would otherwise be a simple blood tasting event.

Hurt is Christopher Marlowe and has lots of stories.

Swinson and Hiddleston have each other.

The important thing here is style. Color. Richness. And the talk.

The film takes place in Detroit, the failed modern metropolis.

Tired blood.

I like this film a lot and keep coming back to it from time to time. If for no other reason to see Swinson and Hiddleston go at it with each other. Otherwise not much happens. It is fun to see them do the deed from time to time.

A 5 out of Netflix5.
