Storia
Once a famous rock star, Jack Starwood now wanders the streets as a bum after his vocal chords were severed by a mobster named Victor Scaletti. This happened at the height of his career, supposedly for the love of a woman. Years later, while drunkenly watching television, he sees a music video of himself and remembers his past. Accused of murder, Starwood is offered a deal: if he confesses, he'll be sentenced to time in a prison where Scaletti is incarcerated, giving him a chance for revenge.
Riassunto
Directed by Samuel Fuller in 1989, 'Street of No Return' is an action thriller with elements of drama. The film is set against the backdrop of sponsored race riots and follows Starwood's redemption arc as he seeks vengeance against Scaletti. It is based on a novel but the source isn't specified.
