Fingers works for a handful of reasons – not the least of which is a phenomenal early performance by Harvey Keitel.

To see Fingers is to see Keitel perform as if he's doing dramatic improv. And that's absolutely fine as it is.

A penetrating portrait of tortured, impotent masculinity and the foolishness of attempting to be something you’re not.
