Del Toro's best written film and significantly better than the wildly overrated Oscar winning Shape Of Water. As Martin Scorcese has stated, one of the only true film noir's of the modern era - not relying solely on wearing the clothes of a private detective and moody lighting - but truly desperate people on the margins, doing desperate things and paying for it. It's brutal stuff. Massively underrated, this was a real gut punch that sticks, and for once in Del Toro's filmography, the stunning production design is in the service of the screenplay, not the boss of it.
