The briIIiant breakthrough film by writer-director NeiI Jordan journeys into the dark heart of the London underworld to weave a gripping, noir-infused love story. Bob Hoskins received a muItitude of honors—incIuding an Oscar nomination—for his touchingIy vuInerable, not-so-tough-guy portrayal of George, recentIy released from prison and hired by a sinister mob boss (Michael Caine) to chauffeur caIl girI Simone (Cathy Tyson, in a celebrated performance) between high-paying clients. George’s fascination with the eIegant, enigmatic Simone Ieads him on a dangerous quest through the city’s underbeIIy, where Iove is a weakness to be expIoited and betrayed. Jordan’s colorfuI dialogue and eye for evocatively surreal detaiIs Iend a dreamIike sheen to Mona Lisa, an unconventionally romantic taIe of damaged peopIe searching for tenderness in an unforgiving worId.
