Simply the best movie of 1997

Rating: 10/10 (2 June 1999)

Sit down and shut up Titanic fans, and watch the movie that should have won the Best Picture Oscar. Amazingly complex and masterfully acted, especially by Russell Crowe as the violent yet noble Bud White. His performance is nothing less than perfection. The entire cast is superb, their performances perfectly in tune with the seamy mood and overarching themes of greed and corruption espoused by this brilliant movie.
