Internal Affairs is a good film. It is from 1990 and is currently available on NetFlix Instant Download Streaming. The director is Mike Figgis and it is written by Henry Bean. The subject here (police corruption) is banal, but it gains extra value and weight by Figgis' atmospheric direction and, especially, by Richard Gere's powerful performance in perhaps his most atypical role (and as far as I know, his only truly villainous one). After watching him in this film, I don't know how some people can still doubt that he's a talented actor as well an attractive star. The rest of the cast is also good. The finale, however, is somewhat disappointing. I gave it 7 stars. Dale Haufrect
