Snake Eyes

“Believe everything except your eyes.”

Rick Santoro (Nicolas Cage) is a loud, shady homicide cop in Atlantic City, working the crowd at a packed boxing match. Then a shot is fired and a man is dead, with Kevin Dunne (Gary Sinise) standing close by. Santoro starts asking questions, and every answer opens onto another. Brian De Palma stages the night as long unbroken takes, circling the arena and its rooms.
