Unforgettable, 17 September 1999
Author: Jae Ann Brown (goaway@csonline.net) from Emlenton, PA

A film that is extremely evocative - so many exciting nuances. It is unforgettable - a pity that the actor who played the "knife expert" is seen more. One of Peter Coyote's best.An unusual cast - many contrasts. The photography is outstanding. A haunting experience....
