Product Description A government agent hides from his corrupt boss with a Greek gunrunner and his attractive wife. .com What would you do if you were an ATF agent (John Allen Nelson) who knew your bosses were skimming guns, which resulted in your thwarting a bloodbath hit on a Greek Mafia chieftain (Peter Oronati), whose wife (Brenda Bakke) you'd recently taken a liking to? Well, you'd take a temp job with the Greek Mafia if it were offered, wouldn't you? It could happen. And that way you could cozy up to the wife until things cool down at the ATF. Charles Durning adds a weighty presence to the proceedings. Kurtwood Smith does smarmy evil with relish. The violent denouement features many people yelling names with all the pained primalism of Stanley Kowalski crying, "Stella!" --Jim Gay

An underrated gem!!!
This film takes a simple premise, and the cast elevates the material to make a great movie. I have told many people about this film. Most have liked it. You can tell where the story is going, but it is do well done, that you stay invested the entire time. More people should know about this film.

The shoot-out in the River Market. 3. The Greek henchman in the green, silk shirt--looks like a young Vin Diesel--with hair!? 4.
