Owning Mahowny (DVD, 2003, Lions Gate Films) Preowned
Philip Seymour Hoffman delivers one of his most acclaimed performances as Dan Mahowny, a mild-mannered Toronto bank manager whose secret life as a high-stakes gambler spirals dangerously out of control. Based on a true story, the film is a quiet, devastating character study of addiction, denial, and moral collapse, anchored by Hoffman’s restrained, unforgettable portrayal. Minnie Driver co-stars as Mahowny’s girlfriend, while John Hurt brings chilling charisma as a seasoned Las Vegas casino boss who recognizes a valuable mark when he sees one.
Directed by Richard Kwietniowski, Owning Mahowny is a tense, intimate drama that avoids sensationalism in favor of psychological realism, earning lasting critical respect for its intelligence and emotional weight.
