      Audience Member I stumbled across this one while channel surfing. It was late and I was kind of drowsy but I felt compelled to finish watching this film. Good film with a parallel fictional storyline narrated by the protagonist. I like that it had a somewhat realistic ending, kind of poetic. Good performances by Denis Leary, Aitana, Michael Badalucco, and especially Terence Stamp. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
