If you loved Kiss of Death, try Desperate Measures
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 Barbet Schroeder, and they both carry the paranoid, raw mood tags, and they sit in Crime / Drama / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Kiss of Death, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Desperate Measures is
Crumbling 1998 San Francisco sun on a hospital’s glass skin. Frank Connor guards a skull-tagged boy while Peter McCabe, manacled to a stainless gurney, studies the exit sign above. A Schroeder chamber-thriller chasing daylight through steel corridors.
