A Scanner Darkly

Keanu Reeves is the perfect casting choice as a drug-addicted, undercover cop who is or isn’t being betrayed by a friend and/or co-worker. The story; the vague indictment of the pharmaceutical industry and the right to privacy keeps you interested enough that the animation disappears after a while, but remains hallucinogenic and effective. It’s nice to “see” Winona Ryder again. Also fun to see movies outdoors with beer. Thanks to the LA Film Festival.
