Viewing Notes

This has been on my list to revisit for a while now. I hadn’t seen it since the late ‘90s. Lily Taylor and Edie Falco both turn in great performances amongst a solid East Coast cast. The black and white cinematography is strikingly well done and adds a bit of timelessness to the film. Now I need to revisit DANGEROUS GAME, FEAR CITY and THE FUNERAL (and watch CHINA GIRL for the first time).
