Title: Philip Seymour Hoffman's Genius Shines!
Review: Watching this amazing film was, at times, painful for me, because Hoffman seemed to be channeling the famous San Francisco drag Queen, 'Valentine.' He looked just like him and his mannerisms were right on. The scenario seems a bit far-fetched even in New York City, but who knows, it could happen. All of the actors were excellent in their roles and both DeNiro and Hoffman seemed to be getting a kick out of playing their scenes together. It takes me back to the early 90s when 'Valentine' and I were dear friends and just trying to stay alive in a very rich city. Our lives took different turns and he stayed and I returned to New York. While I will never see him again, I can see his spirit in the performance of Philip Seymour Hoffman whenever I watch this film.
