    • Trivia
      Although he is known as a fashion designer, director Tom Ford chose to leave the costuming in the film strictly to the costume designer. Not a single Tom Ford product appears in the film, as Ford "didn't want a commercial."
    • Goofs
      Tony fires the pistol, a Sig Sauer P226 semi-automatic 9mm, twice and is then knocked out by the dying man he shot. The hammer on a P226 cocks and remains cocked after each round is fired, but when Tony wakes up the next morning the hammer is down. There is no way that could have happened; the hammer should have remain cocked.

    10/10
    One of a kind experience.
    Easily the best film I have seen this year. Great performance by all the actors, fantastic plot with a lot of deep meaning and a very atmospheric soundtrack. It's a very unique film. It reminds me of Basic Instinct but without the sex and drugs. It looks like a 90s masterpiece brought from back in time, a solid prove that Tom Ford is a great director.

    True love comes once in a lifetime, and we rarely get a second chance. This film is about revenge and personal progress in life, Its about how the decisions of the past can haunt our lives in the future and how the pain we cause to others always comes back to us. This movie sends a strong message to the people who easily give up on other people and never give them a fair chance to shine.

    I can't understand why some people rated this movie 1/10, just the performance of the actors and the soundtrack of the film should be enough to give it a solid 5.
