The above relates to the a side issue WRT streaming for NIGHTMARE ALLEY, which is related to some corporate maneuvering (Disney’s purchase of Searchlight). The author thinks star power might carry the day for the film during its streaming phase; I think the ongoing preponderance of word-of-mouth that resembles Dan’s reaction to the film will continue to mitigate its success.
The film is certainly ponderous; but, still, there’s always Bela Tarr! :-)
We now await the awards phase…
