Music: Joe Delia

Producers: Edward R. Pressman; Mary Kane

Keywords: Crime, Heroin, Nuns, Rape, Cocaine, Prostitution, Bad Cops, New York

A nameless New Jersey police lieutenant has sunk so low that he retains no redeeming qualities. He uses all manner of drugs, accepts bribes, masturbates during traffic stops, etc. Yet he does not understand how, after a nun is brutally raped, she manages to forgive her attackers and steadfastly refuses to reveal their identities. Following this incident the lieutenant strives for redemption. Astonishing performance by Harvey Keitel. Difficult to watch.
