'''''{{PAGENAME}}''''' is a 1989 crime drama based on the 1982 novel by [[Elmore Leonard]] (who co-wrote the screenplay with James Borelli). Helmed by the controversial director [[Abel Ferrara]], the production was a negative experience for actress Kelly McGillis. In a 2001 interview with the British newspaper ''The Independent'', she stated: "It was the most hateful experience of my life, and I said, if this is what acting is going to be, I will not do it. On the last day of shooting, I said to Abel, 'Are you done with me?' He said, 'Yeah.' I walked in my trailer and shaved my head. I said, 'Screw you, I never want to act again.'" There were also reports of [[Peter Weller]] and McGillis clashing on the set. [[Peter Weller]] states that he never understood what the reason was. The theatrical version was not looked upon favorably by Ferrara ,and others, involved to the movie. In 2014, a three hour "rough cut" was screened at the Anthology Film Archives in New York City, New York. The theatrical version is ninety minutes long and has a voice-over narration that Peter Weller refused to do so actor [[Reni Santoni]] was hired to do. | |||
