He has survived on the streets for twenty years. He's a gambler...a thief...a junkie...a killer and a cop. Now he's investigating the most shocking case of his life, and as he moves closer to the truth his self-destructive past is closing in. Harvey Keitel gives a searing performance as an out-of- control police detective on a collision course with disaster in director Abel Ferrara's brilliant and deeply disturbing melodrama.
