Review of Prince of the City (1981) by Senor C — 10 Nov 2011
I had originally seen Price of the City back when it was being played on HBO in about 83 & I remembered nothing from it other then it had Treat Williams in it. My young mind wouldn't have fully appreciated it anyways.
Only later in life did I start to discover some real gems of film by Sidney Lumet & of what Ive seen I would put this 2nd only to Serpico. It's another great look @ police corruption. Originally flopping @ the show & never really find an audience since no matter how it tries.
It may be because of length but I though it clipped right along most because Treat Williams is so excellent in this. Invest some time; it's well worth it.
