“Start watching Point Blank at any point in the movie and you'll immediately be able to tell that it was made in the latter half of the sixties... at the same time, a good fifty years on, the film feels startlingly modern. The past bleeds into the present, just as sound from one scene will bleed into another. Words are repeated, or sometimes omitted altogether; images are refracted."
~ Hedwig van Driel
