Dangerous Game
A screening in celebration of Cinématographe's newly restored Blu-ray release, featuring an introduction by Justin LaLiberty.
New York based filmmaker Eddie Israel (Harvey Keitel) is embarking on a new production titled Mother of Mirrors, being shot in Los Angeles.
Joining Israel in Hollywood are his film’s lead actors, Sarah (Madonna) and Francis (James Russo), playing an unhappily married couple coming to terms with matters of religion, drug use and unconventional sex. As reality and fiction begin to merge, Israel’s wife, Madlyn (Nancy Ferrara, real life wife to Abel), enters the fray of the tumultuous film production that has become home to infidelity, drug use and acts of violence, setting the stage for an unpredictable and uncompromising final act.
A searing, remarkably raw, film industry drama from noted provocateur Abel Ferrara (King of New York), Dangerous Game is propelled by fearless performances from its three leads and a naturalistic, and ferocious, script by frequent Ferrara collaborator Nicholas St. John (Ms. 45, The Addiction).
