A Little Movie You Need To Watch A Lot Of Times
Mad Dog And Glory hardly ever makes any "greatest" or "top" lists, but it's still one of those films you got to watch whenever and wherever you get the chance. It's the small stuff that brings you back. David Caruso proves what a great, great actor he can be. There is a scene in a bar that shows how toughness is all attitude and has very little to do with physical action. The scene barely involves DeNiro or the other main characters, but it's key to why this movie works so well. It sets up what DeNiro's character, Mad Dog, must eventually face. Credits to director John McNaughton for his expert staging and understanding how to bring the best out of a set of actors with hugely different styles. And, as always, none of this would be possible without a truly unique story and script by Richard Price, who created the surprises throughout the film and keeps every word true to the characters, the city and the story. It's simply fun to keep watching - time after time. If you love to watch movies again and again, you might want to check out the 191Movies website at 191movies.com
