What critics compared The Edge of Heaven to
Baker’s combination of acute emotional intelligence and raucous, often bawdy humor sometimes brings to mind Fatih Akin, a German filmmaker of Turkish descent who also likes to set his films ( Head-On , The Edge of Heaven , Soul Kitchen ) in tough urban areas where conflicting cultural value systems meet and clash.
