Review of Affliction (1996) by Adam O — 23 Oct 2012
Fight Club fans will love this for it is gritty and dark with surprises. This a brave movie that shows the day to day behavior of a man that either imitates or improves on that of his parent for better or worse.
Coburn and Nolte are fearless actors in this film, and come perilously close to camp but manage to walk the fence without falling in the mud. Nolte is in fact, triumphant in the effort. Coburn teetered but was also exemplary all told.
