The Big Picture Oscar Winner Cillian Murphy is an actor who doesn't tend to be associated with the comedy category very often. The Irish star made a name for himself thanks to his gripping dramatic work in Ken Loach’s Palme d’Or winner The Wind That Shakes The Barley, and solidified his reputation worldwide with his stone-cold performances in BBC’s Peaky Blinders and the largely humorless Christopher Nolan films he’s appeared in.
Release Date September 11, 2008 Director Paul Soter Cast Cillian Murphy , Lucy Liu , Jason Sudeikis , Michael Panes Writers Paul Soter Cillian Murphy Is a Great Romantic Lead in 'Watching the Detectives' Watching the Detectives stars Murphy as Neil, the quirky owner of the niche video rental store Gumshoe Video. Neil prides himself on his store’s range of titles, his knowledge of both classical and rare noir films, and, of course, his exceptional taste.
Neil Is Unlike Any Other Cillian Murphy Character Watching the Detectives, as its title suggests, is deeply rooted in the noir genre that Neil is so obsessed with. The film even opens with a cheesy advertisement that Neil has put together for the store in which he plays a Humphrey Bogart-esque detective in the midst of a dark alley, in what is clearly an homage to Phillip Marlowe or Frank McCloud.
