In the Wachowskis’ brilliant neo-noir, Corky (Gena Gerson), a lesbian ex-con meets neighbors Caesar, who launders money for the Mafia, and his girlfriend Violet (Jennifer Tilly). Corky & Violet become lovers and conspire to steal $2,000,000 of the Mafia money that Caesar is sheltering. 109 min. “Like The Postman [Always Rings Twice] and Double Indemnity, this glossy neo-noir exploits and eventually deflates the male ego. The Wachowskis simply turn up the heat a notch.” – Rita Kempley, Washington Post.
