Q&A (1990) Q&A

Q&A ★★ 1990 (R) Semi-taut thriller with Nolte playing a totally corrupt, hair-trigger cop trying to make his murder of a drug dealer look like self-defense. Assigned to the case is an ex-cop turned assistant DA (Hutton) who's supposed to sweep the case under the rug. Then he finds out another dealer (Assante) is a witness and he happens to be romancing Hutton's former girlfriend (film debut of director Lumet's daughter). Lots of violence and raw language. 132m/C VHS, DVD. Dominic Chianese, Nick Nolte, Timothy Hutton, Armand Assante, Patrick O'Neal, Lee Richardson, Luis Guzman, Charles S. Dutton, Jenny Lumet, Paul Calderon, Fyvush Finkel; Director: Sidney Lumet; Writer: Sidney Lumet; Writer: Andrzej Bartkowiak; Cameo: Ruben Blades.
