Späte Abrechnung (2000)

Späte Abrechnung: Directed by Bradley Battersby. With Peter Coyote, Nastassja Kinski, Fairuza Balk, Jeremy Piven. A college professor reluctantly hides an escaped female convict who tries to get him to help prove her innocent of a murder.

“This was a surprise. Peter Coyote is one of the few actors I can imagine who actually convinces you that he is an expert on Hawthorne. Unlike many such movies, the college setting was convincing. Nastassja Kinski smolders quietly, and effectively, as the girl who may or may not be a murderer, Fairuza Balk is enticing and funny as the deanu0026#39;s daughter who falls for Coyote, and when is it not a pleasure to watch Jeremy Piven doing u0026quot;Jeremy Pivenu0026quot;?u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAny movie that makes you want to re-read Hawthorne is worth watching. Maybe For English Majors Only, but thoroughly enjoyable to the end.”
