Underrated film, otherwise marred by Christian Slater. I worked with a Jamaican when that movie came out, and he was amazed, not offended, at Oldman's over the top performance.

Great performances from Hopper, Walken, and James Gandolfini in the first role I ever remember noticing him in.

Yes...James Gandolfini’s scene with Alabama in the hotel room got him Tony Soprano, IMO.

But, I’m surprised you thought Slater didn’t carry himself.

I thought he was perfect...for the personality Clarence called for. Dim-witted, cold-blooded, but with morals.
