Angel's Dance is a 1999 American-German black comedy crime film written and directed by David L. Corley and produced by David Bixler. [1] The film stars James Belushi, Sheryl Lee and Kyle Chandler. [1]
Tony wants to be a hitman for the Mafia, but first he has to learn from a master. Enter Stevie "The Rose" Rosellini - cool, eats veggie dogs and quotes Nietzsche. Greco may not agree with Stevie's style, but he has to complete his training so he can go back and kill the Mafia's accountant, who is about to turn state's evidence. His final test: kill whoever is supposedly randomly picked out of the yellow pages. His target: Angelica "Angel" Chaste, a very disturbed woman. Tony falls for Angel and fails to kill her, so Stevie sets out to finish the job.
Variety wrote that Angel's Dance was, "A diverting, if just half-successful, attempt to put a fresh spin on the now-familiar mix of hit men and black comedy, "Angel's Dance" shifts the central p.o.v. to a female character --- then doesn't develop her well enough to make that refreshing switch pay off as well as it should."
