Mixing the traditions of film noir and high-style action, THE CROW, based on James O’Barr’s popular underground comic book, introduces a mesmerizing hero of the urban music scene in this gothic urban fantasy for the ‘90s. Featuring the final performance of Brandon Lee, an ordinary guitar player becomes a ray of superhuman hope in a city of fear. Lee’s haunting work is the centerpiece of this stunning film that turns O’Barr’s vision of good vs. evil into a music-driven, fully realized cinematic tale of love, death, and revenge.
