Quotes:
Jack Grimaldi:
You ever seen a ghost? There's this guy. Comes in here. Every May 1st. Every May 1st, every December 1st. Like clock work. What's he want? Well, frankly, I ain't exactly sure. He had the strangest story to tell. He left this here and I keep it for him. How do I know he'll be back? What's that? A woman was involved? Hm, just fits. I was married once myself. Beautiful girl. By the way my name is Jim Daurighty. I run this place. His name? Sure. His name is Jack Grimaldi. Hey, there he is now!

director medak has produced a movie classic; lena olin and gary oldman give (by far) the most outstanding performances of the year in this very complex tale. U WILL NEVER SEE A CHARACTER LIKE OLINS AGAIN IN YOUR LIFE. easily the best movie of 1993.
