New York Strip Clubs: ‘Brooklyn’ heavy on the grit
For most of “Finest” we get sections of each character’s storyline separately, although it is clear their paths could inadvertently cross at any point. Eddie goes through the motions of his last days, trying mostly to keep his head down and avoid doing anything (except some coke with a stripper and the occasional drink while he drives). Sal has a pregnant wife, three kids, and a house he is convinced is too small to be even adequate. Short on money for the down payment on a new house, Sal is preoccupied and growing increasingly more reckless in his attempts to find drug money to steal. Tango? He is understandably bitter at his boss (Will Patton) for keeping him undercover for so long that his life is falling apart without him around to look after it. When they ask him to set up his pal Caz (Snipes), Tango isn’t really sure which side he is loyal to.
