Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans
The only criminal he can't catch is himself.
Directed by Werner Herzog
Produced by Pressman Film, Saturn Films
A darkly absurd, frenetic descent into the moral and psychological corruption of a compromised cop, blending neo-noir crime with surreal, hallucinatory moments and black comedy.
Terrence McDonagh is a New Orleans Police sergeant, who receives a medal and a promotion to lieutenant for heroism during Hurricane Katrina. Due to his heroic act, McDonagh injures his back and becomes addicted to prescription pain medication. He then finds himself involved with a drug dealer who is suspected of murdering a family of African immigrants.
