Seven Psychopaths (2012)

A washed-up, alcoholic screenwriter wants to write a screenplay about psychopaths. He gets acquainted with several. Hilarity ensues.

The gimmick: a genre piece that's a loving tribute, lurid pastiche, and sly deconstruction of genre norms, expectations, and cliches of the "LA crime story".

Watch for: a film that outdoes Tarrantino.
