Movie Haiku: | Director Lumet takes a routine Diamond District murder & turns it into an affectionate tribute to Brooklyn’s Hasidic community. Griffith holds her own as the eponymous undercover “police-person,” scared by life then softened by tenderness -- just like John Book in WITNESS. Soundtrack by Jerry Bock (composer of FIDDLER ON THE ROOF). |
