There's a lot of love for Herzog's version here I think. I sort of like them equally but in very different ways. Watching them back to back I was thinking how great it'd be if Bad Lieutenant became a kind of standard, being constantly re-imagined by other quite maverick filmmakers. I'd love to see a Lars Von Trier Bad Lieutenant, or a Tarantino one or a Michaerl Mann one. It could be the same with actors, after Harvey Keitel and Cage, imagine a whole sequence of films with the lieutenant played by the likes of Steve Buscemi, Christian Bale, etc. All putting their slant on it. Like a cool Bond franchise.
