WALKEN PLAYS THE DEATH CARD IN ABEL FERRARA’S BRILLIANT GANGLAND DRAMA KING OF NEW YORK.

“I never killed anybody that didn’t deserve it.”

—Frank White, explaining away his brutal life of crime, in 1990’s King of New York

WALKEN’S PERFORMANCE AS FRANK WHITE IN KING OF NEW YORK IS ONE OF HIS FINEST—AND LEFT A LASTING IMPRESSION ON THE NOTORIOUS B.I.G.

SCARED OF GUNS?

One of the most famous scenes in King of New York involves Frank White’s intrusion on a card game involving a group of low-level Italian mobsters who have been encroaching on his turf while he was away in the slammer. The scene ends with Walken mowing down the entire room full of mooks—shooting several of them multiple times just for emphasis. It was a sequence that almost didn’t come off, according to Abel Ferrara:

“The first day we were shooting, we did that scene with the Italians around the table. And Chris says to me, ‘I don’t like pointing a gun at another actor.’ And I was like, ‘Oh, man, we’ve got to shoot a whole movie with guns and you’re telling me you don’t like pointing a gun at another actor?’ And then we did the scene and Chris shot that guy five times after he was dead; that wasn’t in the script! He says he’s afraid of guns, and then you say ‘Action’ and he became—how do you say it? Very efficient.”
