If you loved Fat City, try Key Largo
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by John Huston. If that's the register that drew you to Fat City, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Key Largo is
A thunderhead darkens the Gulf. Inside a shuttered hotel, a revolver’s gleam shifts between the bar and the porch. A gang boss and three strangers wait out the weather—and their own tempers. Huston stages the standoff like a parlor chess match with loaded dice. John Huston, noir late-forties, turns a Florida raincoat into an armor of badges and bullets.
