Directed by Werner Herzog
Starring Nicolas Cage, Eva Mendes, Val Kilmer, Fairuza Balk.
USA/2009. 122 min. Rated R.
In Werner Herzog’s new film, Nicolas Cage plays a rogue detective who is as devoted to his job as he is at scoring drugs — while playing fast and loose with the law. He wields his badge as often as he wields his gun in order to get his way. In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina he becomes a high-functioning addict who is a deeply intuitive, fearless detective reigning over the beautiful ruins of New Orleans with authority and abandon. Complicating his tumultuous life is the prostitute he loves (played by Eva Mendes). Together they descend into their own world marked by desire, compulsion, and conscience. The result is a singular masterpiece of filmmaking: equally sad and manically humorous.
“[Cage] and Herzog were born to work together. They are both made restless by caution.” Roger Ebert
“It’s Cage’s best work in years.” Toronto Star
“Undoubtedly the work of a master.” New York Times (Full Review)
