Political pressure, in this most darkly political state, comes down on him to drop the case, but attracted to the transvestite's wife (Patricia Arquette), he finds he cannot stop.
Glad I accidentally caught this on Starz while traveling. Still haven't talked to anyone who has even heard of it, let alone seen it. But, it's ... Read More
