>Forget it Jake, it's Chinatown.
What did he mean by this?
quit worrying about the day to day life of the gooks. accept it as a lost cause, or it'll ruin your faith in humanity and drive you to madness.

"Chinatown" becomes a symbol representing the corruption of the system and the complete powerlessness of the individual. The more you try to fight it, the more danger you're in, and the more you try to rationalize it, the closer you are to losing your mind.
So an innocent women gets killed, the water company faggots get their millions, the judges are on the take and justice will never be seen. Forget it... just forget all of it.
>Forget it Jake, it's Chinatown: Director's cut, now available on Bluray
He's just reminding Jake that the theatrical version is better.
Jake wanted some Mexican food, but they don't have taco bell in Asian populated areas.

He meant that you're watching one of the most overrated movies in history.
>>71889967
Had to shut down VLC and close my laptop after that line. Polanski's a hack.

He went for a walk through the Melbourne cbd
I think this is probably a perfect movie. Are there any other noir films that reach this level of perfection?
>>71891580
It's not a film noir, it a deconstruction of noir.
>>71891624
I think it's still technically noir, it's just very self-aware
>>71889967
I stopped watching it right after he said that. He might as well have just winked at the camera.
>>71891381
There's one in every thread.
>>71891580
Maltese falcon is IMo the only perfect movie
>>71892053
You actually enjoyed this piece of shit?
>>71891580
Try Double Idemnity for regular noir; Body Heat, The Man Who Wasn't There, L.A Confidential and Thief for Neo-Noir, you're welcome.

>L.A Confidential
This was way too normie/flickcore though.

>>71891580
I would say Q&A, but that's also pretty modern. Racist nick nolte is pretty awesome regardless though.

Pathetic desu
If Chinatown was made today they'd tack a happy, optimistic ending on it.
Ironically, this makes me sadder than the incredibly bleak and pessimistic ending it has.
