Cold Weather

Katz here shows himself to also be one of the few American directors of his generation (he is 29) with a strong sense of composition and movement, sound design as suspense, landscape as character.

The result is pretty entertaining, though most of that entertainment derives from Katz's skillful exploitation of gumshoe formula.

There are a few good moments. But not enough to make the journey necessary or justify the abrupt ending.

An unassuming, but charming film...
