description: Creepy intimacy, plenty of suspense, and a few surprises enliven this black-and-white treat from the director of f1i Memento f0i0 . Bill is a struggling writer who fills his time and mind by following random strangers he sees on the street. After breaking his own rule ("never follow the same person twice") he becomes fascinated by Cobb, a voyeur who takes things one step further--actually breaking into people's homes to sift through their things. As you might expect, the relationship soon becomes unhealthy. Writer-director Christopher Nolan already reveals a sure hand in this early neo-noir work. Like f1i Memento f0i0 , f1i Following f0i0 toys with timelines, jumping back and forth and carefully dropping bits of information exactly when they're needed. Short and sharp, f1i Following f0i0 features an intriguing plot line and fine, understated performances by the entire cast. Don't miss it. f1i --Ali Davis
