    The little boy in [Fallen Idol] never seems to do the wrong thing. Seeing things but being taught to keep secrets, wanting to keep secrets but being seen through easily, when telling the truth but making up some insincere lies, telling the truth but finding that no one is listening. well! Being a child is so hard! And this film noir, which is as precise as a Swiss watch, throws us a moral conundrum that is difficult for adults to...

    Near the end, Baines and Phile's cut shots are as moving as the Bicycle Thieves ending. The towering embassy forms another important role, continuing to put pressure on...
