Usually, when we use the word "escapist", we mean it negatively; Warren Beatty's big screen version of "Dick Tracy" proves that "escapist" can be good
 in the right context, but it's not the same thing. The film is a great example of how to use "cinema to tell a story" and "art to make a movie". The story is great, the characters are great and the story has a lot of potential. But the film has some flaws. It's a very slow film, and it doesn't have the great acting, great direction, or great story. I think that the director should have done a better job with the script. He should've done more with his directing. This film was a waste of time and money. If you want to see a good movie, watch "The Man Who Knew Too Much" or "A Beautiful Mind". If your a Warren fan, you'll love this film. You'll be glad you did. And if you're a fan of Warren, then you will love "Cinematography". I'm sure you can find a copy of this movie on DVD. That's great. Thank you. <3<br /><br><div><span style="font-size:12pt;color:white;fontsize-weight:1;background-color:#fff;text-shadow:0.5pt" />I'm a big
