Plot
Summary |
| |
A
FBI agent, Mike Downey (Matthew
Modine), is trying to infiltrate a mafia
family. He sees a chance when Angela de Marco
(Michelle Pfeiffer)
tries to leave the criminal lifestyle after her
gangster husband, Frank de Marco (Alec
Baldwin), is murdered.
The story is complicated by the mafia boss, Tony
"The Tiger" Russo (Dean
Stockwell), who is romantically pursuing
Angela but was also the person who killed her
husband Frank over a dalliance with his mistress.
The plot is further complicated by the mobster's
jealous wife, Connie Russo (, and her suspicions
about her husband. Further complication evolves
with Mike Downey's romantic interest in the Angela
character. Later an attempted assassination against
Tony takes places at a "Burger World"
drive-through.
Downey eventually goes out with Angela, though
Tony eventually finds out about the FBI sting
(and Downey's cover). |
