Wayne, I had the opposite reaction to the guitar-strummed background music: I liked it a lot reminding me of the use of the zither in The Third Man as an unusual and almost hypnotic kind of accompaniment to the story.
And I really liked the movie, too, as it was such a change from the run-of-the-mill contract killing story. I loved his deliberate methodology before actually committing a murder, and I appreciated the gore being minimized. I found Vince a most effective leading man, almost a blank slate against which his two "nursemaids" were wonderful contrast to him. The print they showed looked very good.
