Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Robert DeNiro and Jessica Lange are the most impossible couple. He's a failed lawyer. She's a common waitress. Together they get in a downward spiral, as they can't seem to deal with their problems. The lawyer just failed winning a case in court against a famous boxing organizer and he wants revenge by catching the organizer on his own territory: boxing. Although he knows nothing about boxing, with his fine talk he finds the help of a couple of people like the brother of his new enemy. But the relationship with his waitress doesn't make things double as hard. Written by info@edwinvanoorschot.nl |

Did You Know?
| Trivia | Martin Scorsese was originally set to direct, but dropped out. In fact, it was Scorsese who recruited screenwriter Richard Price to write a draft. According to an interview with Neal Gabler, Price said, "He (Scorsese) felt like he had already 'done' (Night in the City) in all his other films. There was no challenge for him." It would be another six years before producer and director Irwin Winkler and Robert De Niro became interested in making the film. See more » |
