Domino
Tony Scott
Keira Knightley, Mickey Rourke, Lucy Liu, Mena Suvari, Christopher Walken
Domino Harvey was the beautiful model daughter of British actor Laurence. She became a famed bounty hunter in America, but died of an overdose of pain-killers in June of this year.
She was not, clearly, an easy character to get a handle on, but Scott does a fine job in considering her often-troubled life and times, and in this quest is aided by an excellent central performance from the vastly-improving Knightley.
Indeed, a sterling cast of talented performers makes more of the story than you might think.
