About this movie

THE CRYING GAME is the unpredictable, unconventional, multi-Oscar-nominated masterpiece that has become the sleeper hit. Starring Stephen Rea and Miranda Richardson as Irish terrorists, Forest Whitaker as their hostage, and Jaye Davidson as Whitaker's exotic girlfriend, the film is a haunting, humorous and shocking romantic thriller. Never has a motion picture undermined viewer expectations so thoroughly and enjoyably.

Get it right Google. The movie came out in 1992, not 2002!

Beautiful, subtle, and surprising. Wonderful soulful performances, especially by Jaye Davidson and Forrest Whittaker. A film to watch again and again.

Could never get tired of watching this over and over again. Surely Neil Jordan's finest work.
