Ramsey: The Vandy Case

The noir detective drama is back baby. Ramsey's title character is an ex-cop turned P. I. who's hired by a classic femme fatale to look into the murder of her sister. You know where this is going. Envy, lust, crooked cops, and the threat of another killing all loom heavy over this moody modern day telling of a story dripping with moral ambiguity.

Is it perfect? No. There is some repetition which could be solved by another pass in the edit. And some of the locations tend to start looking very similar. But the lead actor turns in a complex, vulnerable performance which is plenty to hold our interest. If you're looking for a throwback to the 1970s crime era, look no further, you could do much worse.
