Short description

Alex Cutter is a boozy, belligerent and deeply cynical Vietnam veteran whose encounter with a landmine during the war has left him minus an eye, a leg and an arm. When his drifter playboy friend Richard Bone is falsely accused of murder, Cutter sets out for revenge in his own inimitable style.

What's left behind the scenes

  • The film is based on Newton Thornberg's novel "Cutter and Bone".
  • The film's title was changed after its release began, as many viewers, based on the punning title "Cutter and Bone" (the surnames of the characters, which can be translated as "Cutter and Bone"), assumed they were going to see a comedy.
  • Dustin Hoffman was initially considered for the lead role.
