Man On The Train?

i read the one review i found in 'reviews' here... it was consistent with what i've seen on the film previously...

i'm just looking for some of you guy's input, reviews, etc...

any thoughts on this film?... any of you own it and recommend?...

Very, very strong Leconte. Slow, meticulous, with excellent leads.

Just want to warn you though that the image rather soft but....that is how the picture was shot.

Ciao,

Another enthusiastic . Thoughtful and well-made film that will stay with you long after you've put the DVD back on the shelf.

I went through a Leconte phase this year. Pro-B and others pointed me in the direction of titles available in other regions. Everything I picked up was well worth watching. Most of his films not available in R1 were less than $15 US on amazon.co.uk. "Man on the Train" on second viewing, is perhaps my favorite of his.
