Watching the Detectives (2007) – A charming offbeat rom-com starring Cillian Murphy as Neil, a movie-obsessed video store owner whose life takes a wild turn when free-spirited Violet (Lucy Liu) enters his world. Packed with film noir references and unpredictable antics, this indie gem explores what happens when a pop-culture geek collides with a real-life femme fatale.
