This tense urban drama stars Nicolas Cage as Frank Pierce, a paramedic on the brink of physical and emotional collapse. Frank has worked for years in one of New York's most brutal neighborhoods, and the pressure of his job has taken its toll; plagued with self-doubt, he is haunted by the spirits of the people he couldn't save, and while he desperately wants to quit his job, outside forces won't let him walk away. Bringing Out the Dead brought director Martin Scorsese back to the streets of contemporary New York, one of his favorite locations, after three films set elsewhere: Kundun, Casino, and The Age of Innocence. The film also reunited Scorsese with screenwriter Paul Schrader, who scripted Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, and The Last Temptation of Christ. The supporting cast includes Patricia Arquette as the daughter of a heart attack victim that Frank has fallen in love with, and John Goodman and Ving Rhames as two of Frank's fellow drivers.

Director Martin Scorsese reflects on 20th century New York with the story of frazzled ambulance driver Frank Pierce (Nicholas Cage) as he goes through the motions of saving lives and losing lives in New York City with a series of odd workers, crazies on the streets, and families of loved ones surviving a stroke. John Goodman, Ving Rhames, Tom Sizemore, and Cage's wife Rosanna Arquette shine respectively in what can be described as a lighter, somber reflection from 'Taxi Driver', this is wild hearty drama. Derived from the same title book by author Joe Connelly.
