“This movie isn't about plot, it's about a style of life, and the difficulty of preserving self-respect and playing fair when your income depends on selling people stuff that will make them hate you.” –Roger Ebert

1992. USA. Paul Schrader. 103 min. Color. Willem Dafoe, Susan Sarandon, Dana Delany.

Dafoe stars as a cocaine dealer who loses his job when his boss (Sarandon) decides to give up the drug business to open a cosmetics company. The reformed addict runs into his ex-girlfriend, who refuses to resurrect the past. But as John re-evaluates his future, he sees her as his key to redemption from the morally corrupt world he depends upon.
