Comments:
Lena
Olin gives the best performance of any actress cast
in the role of a villain with Theresa Russell in The
Black Widow running a close second. It's one of the
few times where a woman is shown as being just as
evil and back stabbing as the men, instead of the
standard whore, mistress, or long suffering wife.
Normally one has to look to Hong Kong to find strong
female leads older than 30. This movie is a must have
for any fan of Mafia drama. On a personal note, if
anyone has worked behind the scenes of this film,
I'd love to know what model revolver Ms. Olin used
on the set. BUY THIS FILM!
