Prizzi's Honor
1985 · 2h 4m · Romance, Comedy, Crime
Watch it. This darkly comedic crime romance is a stylish, clever mashup that shouldn't work but absolutely does—critics agree it's a gem, even if audiences are slightly more divided. Jack Huston and Kathleen Turner's chemistry crackles, and John Huston's direction keeps the whole delightful mess humming.
Plot
Charley Partanna is a hitman who works for the Prizzis, one of the richest crime families in the US. When he sees Irene Walker, it's love at first sight. But he soon finds that she, too, is a killer for hire. Charley can overlook his suspicions, but he can't turn off his heart. And the couple must remember that even if they love each other, the Prizzis love only money.
