Trailer for Too Late, starring John Hawkes.
Private investigator Mel Sampson (Academy Award nominee John Hawkes) is tasked with tracking down the whereabouts of a missing woman from his own past. With this familiar setup, TOO LATE takes the spine of the classic private eye genre and tears it to pieces, weaving it back together into a tapestry of southern California and the menagerie of eccentric personalities and lost souls who inhabit it. From the desolate, overgrown Radio Hill to the ritzy penthouse of The Beverly Hilton, the film presents a sprawling view of Los Angeles that ranges from the undiscovered to the iconic.
Taking a somewhat Tarantino approach, Too Late was shot on 35mm film and will be shown in theaters in the same format.
Though we are big fans of John Hawkes, and the feedback claims that this film is a terrific starring role for him, we are having a hard time becoming interested in Too Late. The trailer definitely sells the whole film noir aspect of the film, but so much that sometimes the film feels slightly low budget. On the other hand, that may be exactly what director Dennis Hauck was going for by filming on 35MM.
