If you loved Lo spacciatore, try Hardcore
Un ponte tra un film che hai già visto e uno che quasi nessuno ha incrociato. Questo è ciò che condividono, e ciò che il secondo fa che il primo non fa.
Cosa condividono
Both films are directed by Paul Schrader, and they sit in Crime / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Lo spacciatore, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Hardcore is
Downtown Los Angeles. Christmas week. A ringing phone. Jake Van Dorn arrives to claim his daughter, Kristen. She is not there. A private investigator leads him into the labyrinth of the San Fernando Valley's adult film industry. Schrader's grim, neon-lit descent mirrors his *Taxi Driver* milieu.
