337 The Grifters 1990 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The movie was released in 1990. It's set in the 80s but it comes across like it was happening in the 60s. Or does it? The boys discuss that and other stuff when they take a look at this Annette Bening, John Cusack, and Anjelica Huston Oscar nominated crime thriller. Also, why is this another film that has incest as part of the plot?
