Review of Bad Lieutenant (1992) by Hans L — 12 Apr 2009
Abel Ferrara directs a take no prisoners descent into the seven circles of hell. Harvey Keitel plays a shit of a police officer who seeks redemption for his very bad ways by punishing the rapists of a nun.
It's a full blown catholic affair so you'll get more of of this the more you identify with the guilt at work in the protagonist. But either way it's austere and sombre tone make this a bleak experience worth enduring.
