Viewing Notes

Tonia’s pick but one I’ve been wanting to revisit. Stacked cast, some of whom are too good for the smaller roles they hold down (Dafoe and Foster specifically, though Foster has a little more character to dig into than Dafoe does). Owen gets some of the best dialogue.

Such a New York movie too; with great dialogue, even for minor characters, all of whom do a great job of conveying that NYC banter.
