Goya's picture of a butchered sheep is, if possible, more tragic still. The animal's flayed head seems to be witnessing its own death, in the form of two hunks of rib cage propped against one another, and the way Goya has rendered the structure of dark red meat and the spectral, yet dense and greasy white fat is both factual and haunting.

...Death is Tucci's marvelously slimy prosecutor. This character was once a symbol of society's rectitude. Now he's as hard and amoral as the gangsters, someone we snicker at knowingly. He, and our reaction to him, may be the scariest thing about this movie-scarier than Cage's performance. Or the good reviews for Caruso's nonperformance...
