Jonathan S. @JonathanColeSpivey Jun 14 Following (1998) is a pulp fiction neo noir crime film about a writer, The Young Man, who follows strangers for writing material in the broad day light, or into the darkness, of London. The young writer played by Jeremy Theobold eventually gets caught by Cobb (Alex Haw) a mad thief who toys with others properties and lives. He sometimes takes items and misplaces them and sets the owners up to become a wedge in relationships. Cobb lures The Young Man, a local inspiring writer, into his secret life of breaking and entering and theft. The Young Man trails him to construct his story. The Young Man comes across a tainted past from one of his trespasses, The Blond played by Lucy Russel. He begins to see her and spends time hearing her story. The Blond unveils her shadowy path when she confesses a crime she witnessed from an old psychotic boyfriend. She becomes an accomplice to a violent murderer which others in the underground can hang over her head. (Read review at Cole Spivey’s Facebook See more Townes D @RT25529920 Jun 14 It was incredible. When I started watching it I didnt know what I would think about but I loved. 10/10 DO recommend See more Tom F @RT55173143 Mar 2 Christopher Nolan on a tight budget and brief running time turns out to be just okay.

A pretty fascinating story that had me a little lost early, but it all got tied together by the end. Just like Nolan normally does.

Following's budget is both its most impressive aspect as well as its biggest weakness. The fact that Nolan was able to make this for just $6,000 is incredible. However, there are some noticeable technical limitations, particularly in the audio quality. Despite its problems, the film is worth watching just to see how much he’s grown as a director.
