Welcome to New York

The 2011 controversy surrounding French politician Dominique Strauss-Kahn inspired "Bad Lieutenant" director Abel Ferrara's edgy drama about an international banker (Gérard Depardieu) who visits America only to become embroiled in a sordid scandal. After he is accused of sexually assaulting a hotel maid during a night of lurid indulgences, his wife (Jacqueline Bisset) organizes his legal defense. With Marie Mouté, Paul Calderon. 108 min.
