Plot Summary:Spanning over two decades, "For the Love of Money" follows the true account of an Israeli immigrant who searches for his piece of the American dream. The story begins in Tel Aviv in 1973, where a young Izek is raised in a seedy, gangster filled illegal casino that operates behind his family's bar. The casino is a haven for unsavory characters who seek to corrupt him to their way of life. When the violence and crime finds its way to him and his family, Izek (Yuda Levi) and his family relocate to Los Angeles. Hoping to start anew, he pursues his ambitions to become a young entrepreneur by developing small businesses, purchasing real estate, and running an auto repair shop. Success seems to find him at every turn and after falling in love with the beautiful Aline (Delphine Chaneac), luck seems to be on his side. However, it isn't long before the world of crime that Izek tried to escape so long ago continues to doggedly follow him every step of the way. Threatened by a dangerously temperamental gangster (James Caan), his criminal cousin (Oded Fehr), and even a Colombian drug lord (Steven Bauer), Izek finds that starting fresh with a clean slate is all but impossible. As those close to him fall victim to the promises of quick money by the way of the gun, violence surrounds Izek until he has no choice but to confront it. "For the Love of Money," is a true story of crime, family, love, loss, and the temptations of easy money, based upon the life of executive producer Izek Shomof.
和爸爸一起看的。
看过一遍就像什么都没看似的
不好
爱德华福隆真爱粉飘过,哥哥,我来看你了
老老实实拍个黑帮片就好了,还非得扯出个美国梦出来
电视剧水准的平民传记片。
70年代的以色列移民在美国奋斗的故事,那个年代好创业啊,难怪那么多人在那时削尖脑门移民美国。 也很喜欢里面的配曲。
催眠佳片
朋友来玩专门为她下了这个新片,看完以后觉得什么也没看。我错了。。。
我在看完制片国家后,才确定这是美国拍的.显然,如果故事不血腥,犯罪手法更柔和点我绝对天朝会更喜欢,因为我只看出了唯一的电影主题,主人公lzek在各种恶劣的条件下都出淤泥而不染,而美国梦这个时常挂在嘴边的主题只是在嘴上说,从做汉堡到修车,无所不能无所不精,还有高人在背后辅,这TM就是梦,我也睡好做梦
这片子是怎么做到看过一遍就像什么都没看似的..Edward Furlong现在长得都没法看了
扫了一眼爱德华-福隆,而已
hard work and keep your hands clean
prefer the soundtrack, brought me back to the 80s.
新电影啊,留个名吧,不发表评论.....
好吧,我是第一个评论者——平淡无奇的剧情如果不是最后的几张老照片对比让我知道这是真实故事改编,我会想要破口大骂编剧——虽然现在也想。缺少细节,莫名其妙的快进表现手法让人蛋疼。高潮都让人乏味。莫名其妙的进度,神乎其神的废情节。。我实在不想多说什么了。
