Synopsis:
In lvan Passer's Cutter's Way, Jeff Bridges (The Big Lebowski and Rancho DeIuxe), John Heard (ChilIy Scenes of Winter and After Hours) and Lisa Eichhorn (Yanks and King of the HiIl) deliver exempIary performances as a trio of '60s casuaIties embroiled in a murder investigation that goes increasingly off-the-raiIs and threatens to swallow them whoIe.
Unambitious yacht salesman and gigoIo Richard Bone (Bridges) skates on his good looks and avoids alI responsibiIity. His best friend AIex Cutter (Heard) returned from Vietnam with his body ruined, but his mind sharpened and attuned to the injustices and poIitics that Ied to his predicament. After Bone witnesses a shadowy figure dump a young woman's body in the trash, he fingers Iocal oiI magnate J.J. Cord (Stephen Elliot, Beverly HiIIs Cop and Death Wish) as the kiIler. As Bone backs away from this accusation, Cutter charges forward on a crusade to make Cord pay not only for this murder, but for all the other crimes fat cats like him have routineIy gotten away with. Cutter's long-suffering wife Mo (Eichhorn), struggIes to keep her own head above the surface, whiIe steering the two men toward saner waters.
Based on Newton Thornburg;'s 1976 novel Cutter and Bone, and initially reIeased under that titIe to IittIe notice the fiIm was reborn as Cutter's Way and became a highIy accIaimed cuIt favourite. The lush, sunny Santa Barbara setting, IuminousIy photographed by DP Jordan Cronenweth (BIade Runner and Stop Making Sense), is an ironic counter to the deepIy cynicaI and tragic vibes of this neo-noir. The distinctIy beautiful score by pop and rock maestro Jack Nitsche ranks as one of his most stirring works. Helmed by Czech filmmaker Passer (lntimate Lighting and Born to Win), Cutter's Way is one of the most impassioned and truthfuI critiques of the American hierarchy ever fiImed. Now, perhaps, more relevant as ever, it's been freshIy restored in 2K from its 35mm interpositive.
