Review of Clean Slate

Clean Slate (1981)
9/10
Brutal, darkly humorous and brilliantly done film noir
19 May 2002
Jim Thompson meets Joseph Conrad in a small, dusty town in Senegal. The writing is excellent throughout, delving into themes that most films would never have the guts to handle. Brutal, darkly humorous and brilliantly done. A great, great film noir. Not a movie for those easily offended (though one they should probably see and learn from.)
