I just watched "Miami Blues" again on dvd. Being that it's still snowing, I figured I'd torture myself by looking at sunny South Florida.

I think this was Alec Baldwin's finest performance; filmed in 1989 before we knew what an overly political lunatic he'd become . It's adapted from the Charles Willeford novel of the same name. Willeford was a pulp noir master, if you dig that type of writing, as I do.
