Über diesen Film

Set against the backdrop of 1950s New York, “Motherless Brooklyn” follows Lionel Essrog (Edward Norton), a lonely private detective afflicted with Tourette's Syndrome, as he ventures to solve the murder of his mentor and only friend, Frank Minna (Bruce Willis). Armed only with a few clues and the powerful engine of his obsessive mind, Lionel unravels closely-guarded secrets that hold the fate of the whole city in the balance. In a mystery that carries him from gin-soaked jazz clubs in Harlem to the hard-edged slums of Brooklyn and, finally, into the gilded halls of New York's power brokers, Lionel contends with thugs, corruption and the most dangerous man in the city to honor his friend and save the woman who might be his own salvation.

Absolutely magnificent. Edward Nortons depiction of mental illness (OCD among others) was truly believable and showed the frustration sufferers go through on a daily basis esoeically the door scene. The mystery kept me guessing right until the reveal. Again truly magnificent

Gorgeous film, sexy music and a real deep film.

Very good propper film
