Final Thoughts: What we have here is a great lead performance left in the hands of people who didn’t know how to capitalize on it. Unlike in Duke’s THE SILENT PARTNER, he doesn’t have a great Curtis Hanson script to build on and we’re left with a good performance in a sloppily made movie that doesn’t seem to go anyplace. Now, I’m sure if I saw this movie at another point in my life or when I was in...

Outside of video boot owners, past audiences include those of a few feature runs overseas, a 1991 New York theater screening, and the handful [...]

JoBlo (Free subscription) | 21/11/2008
How does a filmmaker approach the theme of racism? Samuel Fuller uses both carefully placed metaphors and overt bluntness in 1982’s White Dog, and for the latter, he was punished. Because Fuller approached the topic so directly (as he did in 1959’s The Crimson Kimono and ‘63’s Shock Corridor), few viewers could have misconstrued his intentions. Unfortunately, these few viewers were all members of the...
