Drawing from Verdi's “Rigoletto,” the widower Rick is a detestable corporate exec who despises his annoying and much younger boss Duke yet degrades himself to score points. He's pushed past the breaking point when he learns that the punk has been sex-chatting online with his teenage daughter and figures putting a hit out on him is the only answer. 93m/C VHS, DVD .
