Screening Log, August 2005

Seconds
USA / 1966

They simply don’t make movies like this anymore. Or perhaps they never did. Frankenheimer’s characteristically jerky editing and James Wong Howe’s precisely confusing camerawork make for a thoroughly gut-wrenching experience. And though Rock Hudson never really impresses me, he nonetheless makes the potentially outlandish premise believable.

Also, there’s a nifty title sequence by some guy named Bass.
