The Delta

Newcity Chicago

DIRECTED BY: Ira Sachs

REVIEWED: 04-27-98

Ira Sachs' modestly budgeted debut feature is a story of an ill-fated romance between a well-off white teenager and the immigrant son of a Vietnamese woman and a black G.I. While the story grates, there is a compelling mood to Sachs' lively, smudgy 16mm vision of Memphis and its night world of dark streets, bars, dirty clubs and bought sex. 85m.
