Our take
Sweetening the mafia movie with his compassionate, fun-loving touch, Jonathan Demme gives gangster operatics a typically offbeat makeover. A dangerously magnetic Dean Stockwell leads a glowing ensemble cast, receiving a long-deserved Oscar® nomination for his purring, prowling performance.
