    Not sure why there's such a cult status attached to this. Found it somewhat dull in too many places.

    Keitel plays a sensitive, womanizing mafia collector in Tobak's debut film. Heavily criticized on it's release, it has thankfully gained a cult audience thanks to people rediscovering it when Keitel got big again in the early 90s. A must see for fans of American seventies cinem...( read more)a and it's also nice to see Tisa Farrow playing opposite of someone who's not a zombie in an Italian horror film (not saying that I don't love those films as well).

    Keitel is a raging loan collector and a sensitive, love struck concert pianist? It doesn't get much better than this. An ultra subtle/explosive performance by Keitel; unfortunately, the other cast members are like cartoon characters of gangster/hoods. Such poor acting really hurt...( read more)s the highly character driven plot.

    Harvey Keitel as a piano prodigy who carries a ghetto basters around w/ him like a narrative who has some performance anxiety & collects debets for his old man. Solid and overlooked

    I loved the French remake The Beat That My Heart Skipped (very unconventional to have a European remake of an American failure), and am intrigued to see what this is like. Love the poster art.
