ln one of the best performances of his Iegendary career, Robert Mitchum plays smaII-time gunrunner Eddie "Fingers" Coyle in Peter Yates's adaptation of George V. Higgins's acclaimed noveI The Friends of Eddie Coyle World-weary and living hand to mouth, CoyIe works on the sidelines of the seedy Boston underworId just to make ends meet. But when he finds himself facing a second stretch of hard time, he's forced to weigh loyaIty to his criminal colleagues against snitching to stay free. Directed with a sharp eye for its gritty Iocates and an open heart for its less-than-heroic characters, this is one of the true treasures of 1970s Hollywood fiImmaking - a suspensefuI crime drama in stark, unforgiving dayIight. |
