Here we go, one more time. Daughter goes to a foreign country, supposedly to do aid work. Father doesn't hear from her. He sets out to find her. It's great though that we have Winstone here, one of my favorite actors. He plays Harry Sands, who goes to Istanbul to track down his missing loved one, who went off with her girlfriend. What he discovers, is a shocking revelation for any parent. The daughter was working as a stripper at a seedy Istanbul revue, some dozes of titty and flesh. Only now she's not working there anymore, and suspicion fall on the son and father who owns the club. Some scenes has Winstone losing it, and we always know they're watchable as he's so believable at dramatics that are not overdone. Soon he becomes obsessed, knocking on other doors, one where a drugged out girl, is kept as a sex slave in a Turkish Bathhouse, who but the that club owner Father and his goons showing up. Thankfully, She's Gone has a happy ending, but the whole film's not enough as we've seen so many of it's type before. It's hardly even suspenseful. The nudity and Winstone are the only two reasons for watching this. Not without mention, but this is one of Ray's lesser known films, that falls pretty weak.
