Hit the Dutchman

In early 1920s New York, a young man is befriended by a neighborhood mobster. He learns the trade then decides to go straight and join the police force. It isn't long before he uses his connections to destroy the mob from within.

Directed by Menahem Golan, Hit the Dutchman leans on a strong ensemble — Bruce Nozick, Jack Conley, Sally Kirkland — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about crime titles of 1992.
