A mystery film noir directed by Alan Parker, starring Mickey Rourke and Robert DeNiro.
A private detective is sent to find a certain man, but when blues musicians and voodoo practitioners get involved, things get complicated.
This film's plot was very good. I really liked how things developed and changed. The characters were o.k., but they didn't play as big a role in the film as the plot. There were some musical scenes like the boy tap-dancing and the water dripping and turning to blood during the sex scene that were really well done. This film confirms my wild assumptions about the golden age of modern cinema and the general good quality of movies from 1987. I'm going to have to rate it good, just because it was.
