Dangerous Game is a 1993 film directed by Abel Ferrara starring Madonna, Harvey Keitel and James Russo. Utilizing a film-within-a-film format, the overall plot involves New York City-based director Eddie Israel directing actors Sarah Jennings and Frank Burns in a Hollywood marital-crisis drama, Mother of Mirrors. While shooting that film — about a wealthy but now unemployed husband who berates his newly religious wife about what he considers her hypocritical aversion to their sex-and-drug lifestyle — Israel becomes more and more demanding of his actors, growing increasingly... obsessive with finding the ugly truths beneath the story's surface. All the while, his own carelessness and bad behavior with his own family begins to erode him and to corrode his marriage to Madlyn . The film opened in US theaters on November 19, 1993. In 2007, Ferrara recalled, This was the first production by Madonna's Maverick Picture Company, a division of the newly formed entertainment company Maverick.
