Movie Description
Affable South Florida smack dealer Dante tries to balance his desires for home and family with his business--and with a vengeance-wreaking former associate back from the Big House. A moody, slow-paced, and surreal effort that eschews the sparseness of Gomez's earlier crime sagas ("New Jersey Drive," "Laws of Gravity") in favor of drug-trip atmospherics and weighty religious allegory. Based on Terry Williams's "The Cocaine Kids."
Industry Reviews
"...Certain sequences are brilliantly atmospheric and evocative....Schulze puts a memorable spin on his role..."
Variety - Todd McCarthy (09/23/1996)
"...Here's a rare, brave director who keeps reaching for more in his films..."
Film Comment - Kathleen Murphy (11/01/1996)
"...Astonishing....It establishes a nightmarish, hallucination-streaked vision at the outset and sustains it right up to the end..."
Chicago Sun-Times - Lloyd Sachs (01/30/1998)
