MEMORIES OF A MURDERER JERKING OFF GUY MOVIE

I also want to give props to prolific soundtrack composer Marco Beltrami (recently of The November Man The Drop The Giver, just to name those), who once again provides a lovely soundtrack.

MEMORIES OF A MURDERER JERKING OFF GUY MOVIE

The real star of the movie Felicity Jones in the role of Jill, the girlfriend of Mike Finkel. Jonah Hill is okay as the disgraced NYT reporter. A quick word about the acting performances: James Franco does what he can with the limited material that is given to him. I am all for a long build-up, but there has to be a reward for sticking with the build up, and when the reward finally comes, it's simply not enough. There is lots of build up in the movie, and ultimately not enough pay-off. The premise of the movie is really intriguing (and cleverly played up in the trailer), reason I went to see this in the first place, namely is Longo somehow playing Finkel, while being in jail, and if so, what disastrous effects could that have for Finkel? Alas, in the movie it doesn't bear out. Couple of comments: 'True Story' is based on the Mike Finkel book of the same name, and if of course a true story. To tell you more would spoil your viewing pleasure, you'll just have to see for yourself how it all plays out. It is not long before Longo makes contact, from jail, with the real Mike Finkel. When he is rounded up, he claims to be Michael Finkel, NYT reporter. Meanwhile, we get to know Christian Longo (played by James Franco), accused of killed his wife and 3 young kids. Alas, later on he is caught fabricating some of the facts for the subsequent NYT piece and he is let go in disgrace. What is going on here? After the opening credits, we get to know Michael Finkel (played by Jonah Hill), a New York Times reporter, as he interviews young men somewhere in Africa.

As the movie opens, we see some brutal images of a young child being stuffed into a suitcase, which later turns up in the water.

'True Story' (2015 release 100 min.) brings the story of how a reporter becomes entangled in a murder suspect's world.
