Our take
The late Bill Paxton gives one of his finest performances as the small-town sheriff in over his head in this superlative neo-noir from director Carl Franklin. Paced to perfection, and with a roiling undercurrent of racial and sexual tension, One False Move is one of the great thrillers of the 1990s.
