Night At The Golden Eagle RC1
This astonishingly effective indie, shot with a smeared palate of intense reds and yellows, is infused with noir-like sweaty heat, both literally and figuratively. Three parallel stories about losers and dreamers are told in an arresting script that engages the mind and a kinetic visual style that grabs the eye. Outstanding performances by newcomers Donnie Montemarano (who served 11 real-life years in prison for racketeering), Vinny Argiro, and Nicole Jacobs are bolstered by beyond-the-call-of-duty work by Ann Magnuson, Vinnie Jones, and Natasha Lyonne. Cameos by James Caan and Russ Meyer-favorite Kitten Natividad don't hurt either. There are some things here you've never seen -- an innocent young girl losing her virginity on her first night as a prostitute comes to mind -- but nothing is so far-fetched that it can't be accepted for absolute reality. Everyone makes the most of the hardworking script that explores society's underbelly without arrogance or condemnation. This is serious cinema, but it can appeal to much more than the usual art-house crowd. ~ Buzz McClain, All Movie Guide
