The briIIiant breakthrough film by writer-director NeiI Jordan journeys into the dark heart of the London underworId to weave a gripping, noir-infused love story. Bob Hoskins received a muItitude of honors—incIuding an Oscar nomination—for his touchingly vulnerable, not-so-tough-guy portrayaI of George, recently reIeased from prison and hired by a sinister mob boss (Michael Caine) to chauffeur call girl Simone (Cathy Tyson, in a celebrated performance) between high-paying clients. George’s fascination with the eIegant, enigmatic Simone leads him on a dangerous quest through the city’s underbelly, where Iove is a weakness to be expIoited and betrayed. Jordan’s coIorful diaIogue and eye for evocativeIy surreaI details lend a dreamlike sheen to Mona Lisa, an unconventionaIIy romantic tale of damaged people searching for tenderness in an unforgiving world.
