WHAT THE STUDIO WANTS YOU TO KNOW
DESCRIPTION:
Thou shalt not kill. It's
one commandment they cannot keep. Though, stylish and extreme, fans of
Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction will thrill to the action,
intensity and intelligence of this modern day morality tale written in
blood. Starring Willem Dafoe (The English Patient), Sean Patrick
Flanery (Powder) and Norman Reedus (8MM).
When the sadistic Russian mob starts
muscling in on their South Boston Irish neighborhood, Connor and Murphy
McManus know what must be done. Feeling that the vengeance of God flowing
through their veins, they set out to rid the streets of gangsters, criminals
and lowlifes. As the body count rises, the brothers become local heroes.
Now, one unorthodox FBI agent must be cunning enough to bring them down.

TRIVIA TO IMPRESS YOUR EASILY IMPRESSED
FRIENDS
-
David Della Rocco's character was named after him, because
writer/director Troy Duffy wrote the character based upon him. The two
have been good friends for many years.
-
This entire film was shot in only 32 days.
-
Kevin Spacey, Robert De Niro and Patrick Swayze were all
wanted for the role of Paul Smecker.
-
This movie's US release was pushed back after the shootings
at Columbine High School took place. As a result, the film premiered first
in several European countries in late 1999, before having it's premiere
in the states in January 2000, which for an American made film is very
uncommon.
-
Writer/Director Troy Duffy is also in a band, after he wrote
this script he changed the name of his band from The Brood to The Boondock
Saints. He and his whole band can be seen in a cameo during the bar scene.
