Great Book turned into a Great Movie
The book was great and while I don’t usually think Hollywood does a very good job translating the book into a movie in this case they have done an excellent job.Nick Nolte is outstanding as Ray Hicks, a marine vet doing a favor for a buddy by smuggling 2 keys of pure heroin back into the U.S.A. When he gets stateside and goes to his buddy’s wife to make the drop all hell breaks loose and Nolte tears up the screen. Also features an outstanding supporting cast with Michael Moriarty as Nolte’s buddy John Converse, Tuesday Weld as Marge Converse, Anthony Zerbe as Antheil and Richard Masur and Ray Sharkey as Zerbe’s henchmen. The ending is surrealistic and one of the most memorable finale’s I have seen.
