Viewing Notes

A pretty decent, though long, crime drama set in ‘70s New York City. The credits say this was based on a French movie which was based off a book. I may have to track down the French film.

They definitely nailed the look and feel of ‘70s NYC and the color of the “film stock” is a pretty good match for what they used to shoot on at the time.

Great cast, with plenty of good performances all around.
