A quiet little detective drama starring a riveting Michael Shannon, “The Missing Person” is worth remembering for when it comes to video and cable. My review is up.

I wasn’t too sure about this one after I read that director said he set out to make a “boring” noir but I like a good mystery. If the payoff is worth it I even like a boring mystery.

I loved this movie. It works as a noir and an art film. I quite frankly don’t know how to categorize it, but it’s great.
