A wonderfully offhand genesis (Welles adopting and adapting a shelved Paul Monash script for B-king Albert Zugsmith without ever reading the novel by Whit Masterson it was based on) marked this brief and unexpected return to Hollywood film-making for Welles. And the result more than justified the arrogance of the gesture. A sweaty thriller conundrum on character and corruption, justice and the law, worship and betrayal, it plays havoc with moral ambiguities as self-righteous Mexican cop Heston goes up against Welles' monumental Hank Quinlan, the old-time detective of vast and wearied experience who goes by instinct, gets it right, but fabricates evidence to make his case. Set in the backwater border hell-hole of Los Robles, inhabited almost solely by patented Wellesian grotesques, it's shot to resemble a nightscape from Kafka.

Terry Zwigoff’s landmark 1995 film is an intimate documentary portrait of the underground artist Robert Crumb, whose unique drawing style and sexually and racially provocative subject matter have made him a household name in popular American art. Zwigoff candidly and colorfully delves into the details of Crumb’s incredible career and life, including his family of reclusive eccentrics, some of the most remarkable people you’ll ever see on-screen. At once a profound biographical portrait, a riotous examination of a man’s controversial art, and a devastating look at a troubled family, Crumb is a genuine American original.

He's killed on the US side of the border but it's clear that the bomb was planted on the Mexican side.

Nel 1979, a New York, Michael Corleone, sessantenne, ammalato di diabete, tormentato dai rimorsi e stanco di violenza, ha raggiunto la rispettabilità: venduti i casinò di Las Vegas e investito il ricavato, utilizzando i servizi della Banca vaticana, è diventato celebre per le sue opere di beneficenza, cosicché, con l'aiuto di un arcivescovo…

The film opens with a three-minute, twenty-second tracking shot widely considered by critics as one of the greatest long takes in cinematic history. On the Mexico/US border, a man plants a time bomb in a car. A man and woman enter the vehicle and make a slow journey through town to the US border. Newlyweds Miguel "Mike" Vargas…
