1992
**½
Director: Howard Franklin
Cast: Joe Pesci, Barbara Hershey, Stanley Tucci, Jerry Adler, Jared Harris

It's a pleasure to have a film with Joe Pesci in a starring role, but this meandering drama is not very good. The story is set in the 1940s and he plays a "crime paparazzi" who finds himself in trouble.
