Aro Recommended Killing of a Chinese Bookie, The

 

USA 1976, 135/108 minutes
Dir. John Cassavetes
Rating: [M]
Genres: Cult, Drama / Gangsters, Independent

Feat. Ben Gazzara

 

Aroview: Cassavetes' most personal film concerns a strip-club owner (Ben Gazzara) who becomes indebted to the mob. An acquired taste for this one as again character and atmosphere preside over plot.
