When Ned Rifle turns 18, he decides to leave the witness protection programme and kill his father Henry. (...) The final part of Hal Hartley’s underground trilogy about Henry, Fay and their son Ned concentrates on the eponymous young hero, who with God’s help wants to commit a murder. Making good use of traditional Hartleyesque irony and finely absurd but never misanthropic humour, this icon of US independent cinema weaves a tale of revenge, failure and family ties.
