I agree. Even with all the recent Abel Ferrara releases, this one still languishes in obscurity. It’s my favorite of that hot ‘90s run he had.

In other Arrow-related news, I have begun writing the narration for the spiritual sequel to The Final Game of Death, including a day’s research at the BFI library today. It’s not Bruce Lee/HK cinema-related but in much the same vein otherwise… hopefully coming soon-ish!

and people on the other forum strangely suggest he'd be doing a doc for VS, when he literally opens the tweet with "in other Arrow-related news". plus I'm sure Mann would shoot down such an endeavor

I mean there's numerous movies I'd love to see Flower do this for - The Magnificent Ambersons, Being Human (though I'd really love it to be this!), etc but I can't think of anything within Arrow's reach that comes to mind. he does say the BFI library, though it doesn't necessarily mean it's a British film. hopefully we don't have to wait too long...
