Chinatown

Chinatown threw me off at first because it is color and it is considered film-noir. This was hard to accept at first because it doesn't look the same with colors other than black and white. Shadoms and gloomy situations look differently. The night scenes made it feel a little more like film-noir but most of the film took place during the day-time. Another thing that seemed odd about the film was that Jack Nicholson wore the nose bandage for almost the whole movie after he was cut and he was the main character. This did make the movie more realistic because being sliced in the nose would take a long time to heal, but let's face it, most movies are not realistic if you look deeply into them and this movie didn't follow that trend. This movie had too many things in it sidetracking the audience from the story.
