Not only is this about a cold case of a rape-murder, but everyone in the movie seems to have a sick sense of humor.  Director Juan José Campanella co-adapted the novel La pregunta de sus ojos (The Question in Their Eyes by Eduardo Sacheri.

This is the first time I have ever given out an F- on any of my blogs.  (Even the Fs are rare.)  But I found the first quarter hour utterly repellent, as it's pretentious torture porn.  At least I know that probably all the other movies for this project will be more pleasant viewing experiences, so there's that.

Boaz Yakin wrote and directed and I hope I never run into his work again.
