The Night of the 12th. Where were you?

Based on an actual unsolved murder, this fascinating police procedural came up with so many likely suspects (homegirl fell in love easily, apparently) only to discover that none of them could actually have done it. The scenario was indeed bleak, but director Dominik Moll focused more on the workings of the police department, the detectives and the things that haunt them, and their personal problems. Somehow, there was plenty to laugh at.

Speaking of plenty to laugh at… my homemade short Miracle at MovieNight worked it’s magic on our guests once again tonight.
