If you loved The Singing Detective, try The January Man
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Theysit in Comedy / Crime / Mystery territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Singing Detective, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What The January Man is
January’s first thaw, a coffee shop’s broken neon buzzing like a hive. Two brothers again: one ex-cop, one still on the job. A murder clock ticks down every seventh night. Corruption hums beneath the city’s ice, sweet as stolen sugar. One must play decoy with his own badge. Pat O’Connor’s thriller thaws in mordant neon noir.
