The private detective Angel is looking for a missing person, the famous crooner Johnny Favourite. His client, the foreign gentlemen Louis Cyphre, wants Johnny to give back something....
Yes. Cypher has 4 scenes with Angel and he reveals that knowing smile in every scene. After watching the movie many times it's so clear that Cypher is toying with Angel the whole time.
You ever humor someone, maybe online, play along with their BS and kind of try to lead them to how ridiculous they are without flatout saying it? That's what Cypher's scenes remind me of
@@Heretic1981 because Cypher is a politician. Just like the working world. People that keep their mouths shut in certain situations and say the right thing at the right time.
"Dead bodies, Mr. Cyphier, murders." I always liked how Mickey Rourke delivered this line, mispronouncing Cypher's name again. And of course Cypher mockingly: "Murders, hmmm..."
This is one of the best movies of all time. I've watched this countless times and am blown away by the cinematography, the atmosphere, the locations, the performances, the depth of this movie! Incredible.
yes....a masterpiece....i recall seeing it at leicester square when it came out...the whole cinema was silent and drawn in......and it just took everyones breath away , by the last scene with the kid everyone had been rocked....
My favorite scene in th whole movie with the best line: "Yeah, I'm an atheist....I'm from Brooklyn." I loved this movie when it came out in the eighties. The book is a good read as well, but DeNiro as Satan was inspired casting. He seems to be having real fun with the character. The eighties were really the last era of good horror movies that were not so reliant on mindless gore and bobble-head character. Jacob's Ladder was another very interesting movie that still makes me think what it's about
GREG FREEMAN this movie, Jacob’s Ladder, and The Sixth Sense all had surprise endings. The conclusion of this is surprising because the man he’s looking for was released from a hospital, had amnesia, bandages around his face and extensive plastic surgery, thus making the people Angel interviewed about Favorite not realize......Anyway, your voice can change over time from aging and smoking. Johnny Favorite was probably too smart and sophisticated to be a smoker.
Take your nostalgia lenses of old man there was plenty of shitty garbage 80s horror around tons of b movie straight to video films full of senseless gore and guess what there still is great horror movies being made just need to look for them.
Love this scene. I just love this film in general, a piece of art! This film and The Devil's Advocate are some of my favorite mystery thriller films! And if you liked this you should definitely see Devil's Advocate, both films are similar but also different.
This movie is one of my favorite movies of all time! This movie scared the hell outta me. No other movie scared me as much as this one. The atmosphere in this movie is creepy. I consider this movie Mickey Rourke best movie.
Ambrosia1974 I totally agree with you. Everything in this movie looks miserable and dirty! 1955 was supposed to be such a great year for the average white person in America. In this movie, New York City is a cesspool of slushy snow and decaying buildings, and New Orleans is a cesspool of old decaying buildings and hot weather. Nothing in this movie looks cheery or bright, everything is gloomy.
@@jondstewart in that regard few movies show such a bleak picture of a city as New York in the 60s-70s in the French Connection, every location looks like a dumpster so much so that the actual dumspter does not seems so bad when they go there.
@@DMalltheway I agree, Johnny / Harry was easy business since the get go but Mr. Louis C. was enjoying himself, taking his time, I think not many people he deals with are so foolish and arrogant as Johnny to think there is way out and actually try to do it, so he was playing with him the same way a cat plays with its prey.
Angel was an atheist. Johnny was a satanist. Angel was a low-level private eye with no morals and average intelligence at best. Johnny was a very clever, cunning, suave, charming, and terrible person at heart. The latter lowered himself in humanity when he ate the heart and got blown up becoming another person.
Great film, the more times you come back to it, the more little nuances you pick up on. Like Cypher's "OH REALLY?" reaction when Johnny/Harry tells him he's an atheist
He had an excellent run in the ‘80s, although the sour reception of projects like Year of the Dragon (truly underrated), as well as the steadily diminishing profile of his films and overall leading man viability really hampered his momentum. Botched plastic surgery and a lengthy hiatus while boxing professionally in the 1990s only ensured his relative insolvency as a mainstream actor.
@@beachboy13600 why look at him that way? he wasn't saying anything against Mickey Rourke , I know exactly what he meant. It's not hard to figure out, I love the dude, the way I look at it and I think the way he's looking at it is that once Mickey Rourke got that plastic surgery it f***** up his career , more less. Mickey Rourke could have going on with his talent! that's what I believe to be true and I think that's what the dude up there meant, also... you don't have to call him a c*** you can call James Lowe jr. a c*** a big fat c***
stoogefest16 also he had the closet loaded with demons!!! He was my favourite actor in the 80’s early 9O’s he was reported to police by His wife Carre’ Otis... I remember during an interview with Italian tv he told Raffaella Carra That boxing helped him fighting his demons ... and he had lot of anger inside ... from there he went down hill ... and he begun having plastic surgery.... The guy was Damned Hell of an actor he was ...
That must had been pretty scary, hope it was not related to the nightmare Angel has about that woman he encountered in the church in NY, that scene still creeps me out plenty.
Mickey Rourke actually became Harry Angel. It's not acting - it's Harry Angel! That sort of thing doesn't happen all that often. Everything about the film is perfect. Rourke is a powerhouse throughout and I believe this was his best ever film. De Niro overplays, but perfectly! And the cinematography. I wish I could wear a crumpled linen suit like Angel does.
I thought being in a church would make satan sick or something rendering him weak. This is a brilliant film. Haven't seen it in 20 years. I'm going to have to rent it soon.
that`s a great film... one of the best. Indeed a mix of Goethe and Chandler. Alan Parker did an excellent job `cause Rourke convince as a kind of Marlowe/Faust and De Niro is awesome as a modern Mephisto. Who liked the movie can be interested in the novel Fallen Angel, which is based on.
Love how Cypher chastises Angel for blasphemy, but that little “gasp!” gesture shows he clearly gets a kick out of it. Also telling the devil himself he’s an atheist
Nonsense. They're performances were of equal quality. In fact it was De Niro, who had established himself as a first-rate actor long before Rourke did, who undoubtedly brought the best out of Rourke. De Niro set the standard, and Rourke succeeded brilliantly in raising himself to that standard.
Couldn't agree more Single Tax. DeNiro as the devil set Johnnie up so well. You can tell by the half-smiles he's really enjoying himself. I love this movie.
You ever talk to someone, and you knew every word they were saying was bull, but you just humored them anyway? That's what DeNiro's devil is doing with Mickey the whole movie, toying with him and setting him up. That's why it seems like he's not as invested. Also, Mickey's the main character. So, consider the performances about equal
Duelo de interpretações! Rourke manda bem com seu Angel intrigado, mas quem parece se divertir enquanto trabalha é Mr. De Niro! Seu risinho cínico preso entre os dentes cai como uma luva para o famoso personagem!
04:08 A seat in the electric chair. After he says that, Cypher gazes at him as though that is exactly what he has in mind, and then pats his arm where an electric chair strap would be placed. "I know (I'm going to burn.) In Hell."
Did anyone noticed that they sing the "King´s Hymn" from the game Shadow Man? It was the theme of the Lizzard King. Does anyone know what the real name of that chant is or is it really the Kings´s Hymn?
I think the first creepy scene was the close up of Harry's face as he had a flashback of the soldier in Times Square, and that music made it even more spookier .
The thing is that Fowler, Toots, Margaret, and Ethan didn’t recognize Angel even in the slightest. Being almost fatally wounded in the face in World War 2, having facial reconstruction surgery (in 1943, haha), and years of chain-smoking Camels can change your voice.
Angel wasn’t bright enough to realize Cypher just made a random visit to a Catholic Church in New Orleans to meet with him on his progress. Angel wasn’t that bright, but Johnny was a much more brilliant person and a chess player. A low-end Brooklyn detective would think something was fishy if his client made a surprise appearance in church, but he didn’t and for a reason.
Jacob's Ladder influenced music PV more than Angel Heart. But both films made by same producer, Angel heart is 1987's movie.Adrian Lyne often worked Parker's co-workers.Lyne was influenced by Parker.Jacob's ladder is 1990's.I guess Angel heart influenced Jacob's ladder so much.
As honorable mention, I humbly submit The Exorcist for your consideration. I'll never forget William Friedman's comments during a Q&A in LA about 15 years ago. He said it's actually a detective story. If you view it all from the perspective of the detective (played by Lee J. Cobb) as he sets out to find the killer of the party guest.

It's the unrelenting grounding in reality balanced with unimaginable supernatural which makes this truly gripping on a psychological level. The visuals are just icing on the cake.
I think it was important it was noted "Angel" was an atheist/satanist, Lucifer would not have stood a chance if he were not. All it took was one command "satan, leave him" and gone.
I don't recall reading or hearing about either one of them for either role. That sounds like an ongoing Internet joke about Cage being considered in the past for various iconic Hollywood movie roles from Forrest Gump and Vincent Vega to Aragorn and Daniel Plainview. Most likely it's just nonsense
***** Can you recall when and where who he was interviewed by? There were a few websites who regurgitated stories about Nic Cage turning down epic roles but when you dig deeper nobody can cite the source of said interviews.
Interesting how Cypher berates him for using bad language in a church. Almost like he's respectful of Christendom...you wouldn't normally get that in other movies. An interesting interpretation if 'ol Beezlebub!
I love how Cypher always has that little smile whenever Angel says anything, like he knows it all and is just playing along.
Yes. Cypher has 4 scenes with Angel and he reveals that knowing smile in every scene. After watching the movie many times it's so clear that Cypher is toying with Angel the whole time.

The depth is OUT of this world...
yes....a masterpiece....i recall seeing it at leicester square when it came out...the whole cinema was silent and drawn in......and it just took everyones breath away , by the last scene with the kid everyone had been rocked....
Are you kidding. This is quite possibly one of the best horror films I've seen.
The devil is just sitting in a church
Damn this is such a great film
He was an Angel once
If you only knew...
I wonder what his speaking engagement was
Irony is the Devil telling you to watch your language while you're in a church, lol.
"Are you an Atheist?" "Yes, I am. I'm from Brooklyn." Best line ever!
This was a really well done and underrated movie
Underrated...ha ha....this is a cult movie for people who know their stuff. De Niro, Mickey Rourke, Charlotte Rampling...Alan Parker ! Underrated?!
I'm no Christian, but if a film ever perfectly embodied the Prince of Lies...
"This is a church, Mr. Angel."

"He got choked to death with a part of the body meant for pissing with." When I heard that line I laughed my ass off.
It's his castration complex. That's why he's "got a thing about chickens", which is revealed when Epiphany decapitates one.
Love this scene. From acting stand point to cinematography, writing and directing. Absolutely perfect scene and this film is definitely a hidden gem.
Love this scene. I just love this film in general, a piece of art! This film and The Devil's Advocate are some of my favorite mystery thriller films! And if you liked this you should definitely see Devil's Advocate, both films are similar but also different.

Yeah and when you hear mickey rourke and robert de niro in a movie together you think gangster flick.
Every time you see Louis cypher his fingernails are longer, a nice subtle way of revealing himself slowly bit by bit to the viewer

He already knows that.

Sorry, you're wrong. He KNOWS Johnny is/was a Satanist, he probably finds the claim of atheism hilarious

James Dean was lead in three movies. Mickey Rourke is a legend. Yes, he self-deatructed but when he was in his prime, he was the best.
stoogefest16 also he had the closet loaded with demons!!! He was my favourite actor in the 80’s early 9O’s he was reported to police by His wife Carre’ Otis... I remember during an interview with Italian tv he told Raffaella Carra

The guy was Damned
Hell of an actor he was ...
01:17 "Murders? Hmmm..." The way De Niro said that, haha.
Genius line from Angel about how Favorite's "setting him up" once you know the twist.
Disturbing film this. No CGI or silly scares. Just a really deeply unsettling story, and I'm not easily spooked.
Incredible movie. R.I.P. Alan Parker.
This movie was actually good. It 's like Mr. Angel is doing all this snooping and searching he is being set up like he said.lol
As a matter of fact,I once had a nightmare about this movie.
The flesh is weak, Nazmie Samsodien.
That must had been pretty scary, hope it was not related to the nightmare Angel has about that woman he encountered in the church in NY, that scene still creeps me out plenty.

Loved it when it came out we ran to the cinema to see it - huge success in the 80’s they should show it more often
realisticaly a simple plot yet an amazing performance new cinema is pure crap compared to these scenes and two amazing actors
How fuckin classic is this...Rourke is discussing all this death and mayhem with a guy named Louis Cypher " Lucifer" hahahahahaha I love this movie!!!
Take me back to the past
"...Who the fuck are you Cyphre?"
Watch your language.
🎶the future ain’t what it used to be 🎶
This film I love it it's classic and clever creepy creative tineless and brilliant acting
Too bad Rourke and De Niro didn’t get along. Wish they did more movies together.
One of my all-time faves. Sooo good.
A masterpiece
love the look on his face when he asks Angel is he is an athiest. that smile. lol.
I thought being in a church would make satan sick or something rendering him weak. This is a brilliant film. Haven't seen it in 20 years. I'm going to have to rent it soon.
Don't they venerate a bleeding body hung on a crucifix? Isn't human sacrifice considered evil, or at least immoral?
Rourke vs Deniro on set the director described both of them acting like they was in a sparring session.
that`s a great film... one of the best. Indeed a mix of Goethe and Chandler. Alan Parker did an excellent job `cause Rourke convince as a kind of Marlowe/Faust and De Niro is awesome as a modern Mephisto. Who liked the movie can be interested in the novel Fallen Angel, which is based on.
"speaking engagement"...nice choice of words.
1:47 "They say there is just enough religion in the world for men to hate one another but not enough to make them love." Yet another classic line!
Very good scene.
The second scene in a church that is excellent. The other one is Prophecy - Gods army, with Christopher Walken and Elias Koteas.
And the one in the original Bad Lieutenant with Harvey Keitel losing his mind.
he lives like from end to start of johnny handsome movie.
"Murders? Hmm..."
Love how Cypher chastises Angel for blasphemy, but that little “gasp!” gesture shows he clearly gets a kick out of it.
Also telling the devil himself he’s an atheist
this film is the best
this was a great movie.
Deniro facial reaction .."you are an atheist"... great acting.. exactly how I see the devil reacting
Mickey blows DeNiro away in this movie!
Rourke was great in this film no doubt, but De Niro was fucking awesome in this movie and owned every scene he was in.

I love how excitedly he asks him ‘are you an atheist’ since they most usually go to Hell with him anyway.

Angel wasn’t bright enough to realize Cypher just made a random visit to a Catholic Church in New Orleans to meet with him on his progress.

Angel Heart or Jacob's Ladder: Which is the better psychological Horror-mystery thriller!
Lucifer would be pleased with both, gathering the souls of both of the followers.
Jacob's Ladder. Angel Heart was AMAZING but i had it figured out within 10 mins.
Pack man Very good question. I would probably go with Jacobs Ladder
Jacob's Ladder influenced music PV more than Angel Heart. But both films made by same producer, Angel heart is 1987's movie.Adrian Lyne often worked Parker's co-workers.Lyne was influenced by Parker.Jacob's ladder is 1990's.I guess Angel heart influenced Jacob's ladder so much.

amen brother
When Satan himself visits your local church...
Happens all the time. There is so much accusation spewed from the pulpit at parishioners that it gives the Accuser a day off every Sunday.
2:18 Vaguely? I'd rather Cyphre didn't know me at all.
you ain't lyin
im sayin
whats really interesting is 99% of the time deniro is sitting down in the movie
He's shorter than Mickey. Made sense.
Mickey is like 4-5 inches taller than Deniro. It would just seem weak to have a short devil lol

Classic sleazy Mickey Rourke. Wonderful.
I think it was important it was noted "Angel" was an atheist/satanist, Lucifer would not have stood a chance if he were not. All it took was one command "satan, leave him" and gone.
Someone upload the full movie
Buy it you cheap bastard
This was Italian v Irish Catholic argument- why-same church
LOL that's an awesome line
2:15 " and the third, you said there were 3 murders " .. Angel never mentioned there were 3 murder.. This devil just knows it all already :D
he said 3 stiffs so that is why
Originally Al Pacino was supposed to play the Devil and Nicolas Cage was supposed to play Johnny Angel
***** Ummm actually he was on the scene at the time
Pacino fine, Cage, no way.
I don't recall reading or hearing about either one of them for either role. That sounds like an ongoing Internet joke about Cage being considered in the past for various iconic Hollywood movie roles from Forrest Gump and Vincent Vega to Aragorn and Daniel Plainview. Most likely it's just nonsense
Fan Made Videos I do recall Nicolas Cage saying this in a interview that he was up for the role of Johnny Angel in Angel Heart but he turned it down
***** Can you recall when and where who he was interviewed by? There were a few websites who regurgitated stories about Nic Cage turning down epic roles but when you dig deeper nobody can cite the source of said interviews.
His name is Louis Cypher. That means LUCIFER!!!!
*Obvious Comment Guy* just doing my part.
watch your language
Satan asking someone to not curse in a church is pretty hilarious for some reason.
If the devil exists in this movie so does God I wonder if Harry could have called for help
DeNiro is first hipster man style ;) 1987 :_)
He's imitating Scorsese's look at the time.
How terrible is wisdom when brings no profit to the wise pichy
Interesting how Cypher berates him for using bad language in a church. Almost like he's respectful of Christendom...you wouldn't normally get that in other movies. An interesting interpretation if 'ol Beezlebub!
5 large. jeez what's this the 40s. That amount of money shoulda been a warning to an experienced gum shoe like Harry
i love the fact that jhonnny being some dark being himself cant stand churches
do people in Brooklyn do anything?
The future isnt what it used to be only satan can deliver those words
I really can't believe it is the same guy in iron man 2
