Prizzi's Honor Comments

    A black comedy filmed by John Houston in his later years, based on gangsters. The director's daughter, Angelica Houston, won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for her unique performance. What's interesting is that, just like in the movie, she and Nicholson had just broken up at the time, which is an out-and-out artistic imitation of life. This film is reminiscent of "Smiths". The director and actors performed very well, but there are some...

    The film won the 58th Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress and was nominated for Best Picture, Director, Actor, Supporting Actor, Adapted Screenplay, Editing and Costume Design. That knife flew really well. As a female killer, that shot is really...

    The foreshadowing is good, but the ending is so...

    I remember watching the dubbed film from CCTV at that time, I was particularly impressed by the throwing knife scene in the final showdown, and I was very sad about the...

    Barely passing. Turner is so beautiful here. The snakes and scorpions in her two scenes are actually sweet. Houston has a good control. This film is a good example of a good combination of events and relationships. The protagonist and the killer love each other and maintain individual positions, but the destiny is ultimately driven by the logic of the gang over the head. Mafia movies, the subject matter is often involuntarily described by people in the arena. This film is a mixture of comedy...

    It's a perfect movie. Although Nicholson didn't have any acting skills, his lips were stretched and he spoke in Italian English. The conflict between family interests, honor and personal feelings. In the film, the pale and thin white-faced demon image of the godfather is added more than Marlon Brando. It is suspected that the Smiths were inspired by this movie. The ending is even more...

    If it weren’t for my obsessive-compulsive disorder patch plan, I would not watch this kind of stupid film in the late years of John Houston, and laying this playful love theme in the gang story is simply too out of tune, and there is only Angelie. Card Houston is worth seeing Nicholson is not acting well at...

    The movie itself is not particularly bad, but so many titles of the main Oscars really make me incomprehensible. Most of the scenes in the film are mediocre, and a few scenes seem to be very mentally retarded. In the end, the pistol can't hit the knife and it is an insult to my IQ. However, the film still has merits, at least the performance is good, but Angelica's performance is not to the level of winning the award, the male pairing is very...

    Who translated the dragon and phoenix pretty enemy? ! Who set the label "comedy"? ! Who said it is similar to the Smiths? ! It's a noir film that is completely cold to the end! ! ! Ps Katherine Turner flashed small benefits. I've been the best actress in Ps, but there are not many...

    John Huston and classic Hollywood

    The "Honor of the Pritz Family" in 1985 is still the classic Hollywood flavor of the 1940s and 1950s, especially in several aspects (although there are obvious traces of the godfather, especially the first wedding):

    Honor of the Pritz family

    "The Honor of the Prytz Family" is the representative work of the American director John Houston in his later years, filmed in 1984. This film won almost all the "Golden Globe" awards in the United States, but at the 58th Oscars in 1985, except for the "Best Supporting Actress" awarded by John...
