More enjoyable than I would've predicted. I was expecting something more mysterious and thrilling, but <em>'Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil'</em> manages to entertain nicely - despite a long run time, which I thought was going to hamper it but it didn't. The cast are excellent. I really enjoyed John Cusack's performance and Kevin Spacey plays these sorta roles well. The Lady Chablis is another strong performer, while there are roles for a younger Jude Law, Clint Eastwood - the director - regular Geoffrey Lewis and, though very tiny, an on the brink of stardom James Gandolfini. Well worth a watch!
