This movie takes you down the path of darkness with the main character, Ricky. A rags-to-riches story intertwined with a gritty crime saga, the drama never lets up. As his dreams come true, Ricky compromises his beliefs while everything else in his life starts to fall apart, leaving the audience asking themselves, was is it even really worth it??? The tone of the film is moody and brooding, with an undercurrent of tension that builds to a dark crescendo. The original music showcased throughout the film matches the deep visual tone and content on the screen as well. Lots of lighting contrasts between dark and light help to illustrate the conflict in Ricky's soul in a visual way.
