Potsy Ponciroli's 'Motor City' and the return of the dialogue-free crime film

Variety's July 16 review crowns Potsy Ponciroli's 'Motor City' an audacious, near-dialogue-free crime opera in the lineage of Scorsese. The gambit is unusual enough to demand a closer look.

This publication framed the Variety notice as a lens on a formal choice inside American genre cinema, rather than as a verdict. The wires and trade outlets will report the film's gross; Monexus is interested in what the picture says about the room the studio system is leaving empty.
