The Mighty Quinn

1989 98 min R Action · Crime · Drama · Mystery · Thriller

The chief of police and the chief suspect know each other too well to let a little thing like murder get in their way.

Caribbean coast. Dry season. Distant steel drums. A headless corpse bobs in a hot tub. Local authorities insist a petty criminal is to blame, but the police chief suspects a more sinister plot, rekindling a complicated childhood friendship. Schenkel’s sun-drenched noir simmers with island intrigue.

Directed by Carl Schenkel · Written by Hampton Fancher

Starring Denzel Washington, James Fox, Mimi Rogers, M. Emmet Walsh, Sheryl Lee Ralph, Art Evans
