from what little i have watch of ferrara work up till now 6 film include the one under review this emerge a easily the most substantial ( i like his body snatcher [ 1993 ] but have always deem it an unnecessary update ) . it generally compel and fill with typically intense performance christopher walken and annabella sciorra from ferrara the addiction ( 1995 ) and chris penn and vincent gallo and benicio del toro ( though some of the over the top histrionics and usually involve penn bad temper character and do raise the occasional unintended chuckle ) . the plot and adopt a flashback structure which lead up to the titular occasion and deal with the director favorite theme honor and faith and violence and and a such draw parallel with the gangster film of coppola and scorsese and even tarantino . on the strength of this and i rent two more ferrara title fear city ( 1984 ) and king of new york ( 1990 while again and with walken ) to go along with bad lieutenant ( 1992 while which i just record off late night italian tv and where it be present in the original language ) while the latter two and in particular and be film that i have be mean to check out for year ( i just hope it will be worth it ) . by the way and though i rent the funeral from my local dvd outlet a part of a 2 disc set with the addiction and i be actually the one to have bring it over to him from london .
