Miller's Crossing (Film)
One of the Coen Brothers' early films, this tale stars Gabriel Byrne as Tom Reagan, lieutenant to city crime boss Leo during Prohibition. Trouble brews when rival gang leader Caspar asks Leo to rub out the double-dealing Bernie. But Bernie is the brother of Leo's mistress and as the violence erupts, the amoral Tom has to forget friendship and loyalties in order to stay alive. Meticulously shot by Barry Sonnenfeld, and with a supporting cast including Steve Buscemi and Frances McDormand, the Coen Brothers' hallmark humour interleaves with the violence to create a finely polished, riveting addition to the gangster genre.
Director: Joel Coen
Starring: Gabriel Byrne, Marcia Gay Harden, John Turturro, Jon Polito, J.E. Freeman, Albert Finney
(Subtitles, 1990, 18, 4 Star)
