Robert Altman's The Gingerbread Man -- if you enjoy Hitchcockian thrillers...

...you'll love Robert Altman's The Gingerbread Man...I really enjoyed it. Probably most would say it's a lesser Altman movie, certainly dropped dead when released in the theaters. But it has a lot going for it -- Hitchcockian thriller, great acting by Kenneth Branagh, Robert Downey Jr, Robert Duvall, Embeth Davidtz, and others. Great sense of atmosphere, clever writing. Perhaps most of all, an affection for the material and for telling stories through film. I listened to Altman's commentary as well and was struck by how humble he is. He's got great talent as an artist and a leader (works well w/ cast and crew, knows what he wants but achieves it by working in a very collaborative, cordial manner w/ other talented artists).

If you're in the mood for a good thriller and you like Branagh's style (I personally find it very entertaining, whether its here or in Dead Again, Henry V, Hamlet, etc. The guy is very watchable.)
