Review of The Pope of Greenwich Village (1984) by Christopher S — 10 Oct 2011
An earnest attempt at a Scorsese-esque New York street drama, but one I just couldn't connect with. Mickey Rourke and Eric Roberts are both fine actors, but their characters here are so shrill and obnoxious they border on caricature.
Not a terrible film, technically, but this fatal flaw makes the film as a whole uninvolving and often annoying more than anything.
