Bordertown
“NOW HE'S A FUGITIVE FROM A FEMALE SCARFACE”
CrimeDrama
An ambitious Mexican-American gets mixed up with the neurotic wife of his casino boss.
VIBE
A stark, socially conscious drama that feels both dated and disturbingly relevant. It's a grim look at ambition clashing with prejudice, wrapped in a tense, morally ambiguous crime narrative.
