I have to confess something... I haven't seen all films mentioned in the last post and I'm ashamed. I just haven't had enough time and I've been so busy with school and- Well I'll watch them. From the ones I've seen, though, Chinatown is definitely my favourite. I love the way Roman Polanski takes a simple character and a simple plot and twists it to a bigger scale. The film follows private detective JJ 'Jake' Gittes played by Jack Nicholson- which makes the movie 100 times creepier by itself- who specialises in matrimonial cases. He is hired by Mrs. Mulwray, played by Faye Dunaway, to find out if her husband is cheating; but when she is found dead late that night Jake is sucked into a web of murder, incest and corruption.
Only having limited time both on and off screen I won't have such a complicated plot, but I do want to have a similar tone to this movie.
