21. Bad Leutenant does indeed star Harvey Keitel |
|
at the risk of spoiling the film (I will try to be vague)...
I had to watch Bad Leutenant in two sittings. At about an hour my senses had been overloaded by his descent into drug and gambling fueled madness. Three months AFTER seeing the film I was driving home from college and it dawned on me "Holy shit, it's the bookie!" And then, as if by magic, the entire subtext an plot of the film opened up to me. It's hard to believe that it took 3 months of processing to suss out just what was going on behind Keitel's mania in the film.
Good movie.
I've only watched it one time.
