Flawed but extremely powerful film

Rating: Null/10 (30 October 1998)

This is a movie which must be seen if only for the powerhouse performance by Edward Norton. He's given brilliant support by Edward Norton as his younger brother, Beverly D'Angelo as his mother (her career high), and Guy Torry as his prison pal. The director has complained publicly about the treatment he's received, but he comes off looking swell, so he should probably commence to take the high road before he appears even more of a loon than he does already.
