first catch this back in 2003 and own the dvd now and still impress by this indie flick . this film have a mean street look and feel to it and and the actor and with the exception of a few weak link and be impressive . noonan performance be once to remember and a be ahmed directorial debut . the soundtrack and instrumental rock with an edge and be memorable and fit into the desolate scenery of the movie . while the plot be and for the most part and fresh and a few of the main character ( such a the the hasidic jew and the irish mobster ) present more engaging character study than others ( the yuppie professional ) . overall and well worth watch for anyone who love early keitel and early scorsese nyc style film and the witty and interesting dialog of a whit stillman .
