"Gone Baby Gone" Goes Local

Best piece of writing in today's Globe is Ty Burr's review of Ben Affleck's "Gone Baby Gone," which goes deep into how well the movie captures Boston. Better than "Mystic River" or "The Departed," even if those are better movies, Burr says. He invokes George V. Higgins; "Friends of Eddie Coyle" is, at least until now, still my favorite Boston movie, even if the accents aren't right.

But the best sentence in Burr's review is this: "When the great Boston movie is finally made, it will deal with class and race and the past, and no one here will want to see it."

Exactly.
