Vincent Gallo has made it to one of my favorite crime drama directors. I prefer this semi-autobiographical film written, directed and acted by Gallo. The whole film roughly expresses a central word: loneliness. After watching Buffalo '66, I'd be amazed at how impactful it is - an overly dramatic opening that ends with a terribly romantic ending. Perhaps thanks to his artistic talent in his blood, he has his own unique insights into color, music, and handling of shots. It's worth mentioning that Billy's father's vinyl-like chant is especially wonderful, and Layla's dance in silver Mary Janes in the bowling alley is especially memorable. When the plot develops to the back, when Layla hugs the lonely, low-spirited, sharp and sensitive Billy who is huddled in her arms, he seems to be saved by this angelic girl in an instant. This changed the bloody and tragic ending of crime films. The whole part is well explained: the heart of a person with low self-esteem is like a piece of ice, only the temperature of love can melt it. Where there is love there is hope.
