How depressing can a movie be? Sweet Deborah Francois (ditch the black socks, babe) has a baby from Bruno, street hustler and thief. He is dragged into playing the father, and when he has the kid alone, sells him!!!! Lots of crime, some violence, hopelessness abounds, poverty, betrayal and reasons to hang yourself.
4 stars out 10 on the DUI scale.
