DVD Review: HOMICIDE
September 15th, 2009 at 08:43am Will Pfeifer
Not to be confused with the excellent NBC cop show HOMICIDE, David Mamet’s 1991 movie of the same name stars Joe Mantagna as a detective forced to work on a murder he doesn’t care about — and forced to confront some ugly truths about himself and the world around him. It’s a great film — maybe Mamet’s best — and after years of being AWOL on home video, it’s finally been re-released on a beautiful new DVD from Criterion. It’s also what I’m reviewing in this week’s Movie Man column.
