Reakon that's the problem with the movie - it's pretty much ALL procedural and facts. Audience really doesn't get a great insight into the private lives of Graysmith, Toschi and Avery. Yeah, we get glimpses here and there but they're lost in all the case file stuff.
Kinda frustrating coz, technically, it's a brilliant film on so many levels. It's just pretty dry and keeps us at a distance. Never really lets us in...

Probably another movie where you have to know a fair bit of the backstory to make it accessible but I thought it handled the subject brilliantly. And the acting by Daniel henshall was superb

Are you a grumpy old man?
Thought 21 was hilarious albeit juvenile but it's pretty much par for the course.
Why on earth if you hated the first would you go to the second one? That makes no sense at all
