Shot on 35mm in five scenes, this feature debut reveals in nonlinear fashion the tangled relationship between a troubled private investigator (John Hawkes) and the missing woman (Crystal Reed) he's hired to find. With this familiar setup, Too Late takes the spine of the classic private eye genre and tears it to pieces, weaving it back together into a tapestry of Southern California and the menagerie of eccentric personalities and lost souls who inhabit it. Each scene is an uninterrupted shot lasting the length of a reel of film (22 minutes). The cast resembles a Robert Altman ensemble involved in a “roiling mystery that will come to an explosive, supremely tense conclusion.” —Nerdist.com
