An intriguing and stylistically luxuriant film
A pretentious thriller directed by Britisher Mike Figgis.
This is a serious gem of an obscure film. I never expected to find it in the database. Better than Lynch. And a great Earl Bostick tenor sax recording to boot. Arty and offbeat without deliberately trying to be (unlike Lynch's post Blue Velvet work, where I think he was trying to live up to his own image).

Very stylish movie, often overlooked. MGM delivered some cracking stuff in the in the 60's, 70's and 80's. The decline started in the 90's, even the James bond bandwagon started hitting the gutter thanks to some hilarious acting from Dalton and Brosnan yet this movie was one of their better ones.
