Description
Cast: Alec Baldwin, Fred Ward, Jennifer Jason Leigh
Armitage’s stellar 1990 adaptation of Charles Willeford’s crime novel of the same name is a heady brew of Hare Krishnas, haikus, and homicide. Fast-paced, witty, and daringly eclectic, Miami Blues is also gorgeously photographed by Tak Fujimoto. Don’t miss a rare opportunity to see a 35mm print of this hidden gem from under-appreciated writer-director Armitage (Grosse Pointe Blank). (BR)
