The Ice Harvest
I watched this movie based upon the recommendation of a guy who hangs out at the courthouse and prosecutes people for fun.
The Plot: A lawyer and his buddy embezzle a trainload of cash from a mafia type client.
Why Is "Ice" in The Title?: Because the entire movie is based upon one night when it is raining as the temperature meets 32 degrees and drops. (That's my best explanation)
Actors: A very entertaining John Cusack and Billy Bob Thornton
Flashback: It is directed by Harold Ramis (see Stripes and Ghostbusters). [Edit: Ramis' name was corrected from my original stupid typing of "John Ramos"]
To Look For: Double crossing and triple double crossing.
Nudity: A little
Violence: Above average
Best scene: A very uncomfortable Christmas Eve Dinner
Rating: Yeah, check it out.
