Diary of a Hitman

(1991)Directed by Roy London90 min · RCrime, Drama
“Nothing personal. Just business.”

In 1991, Dekker (Forest Whitaker) is a veteran hitman who has decided this will be his last job. The man hiring him, Shandy (Jim Belushi), wants his wife Jain (Sherilyn Fenn) and their baby dead, and Dekker finds he cannot go through with it. Roy London keeps the film close and quiet, working from Kenneth Pressman's play and letting Whitaker's stillness carry the scenes.
