Final Reward is a 1978 American underground film noir directed by Rachid Kerdouche. Shot in black-and-white in Lower Manhattan, the film stars Richard Hell in his first leading role,[1] alongside writer-actress Cookie Mueller, model Teri Toye, performance artist John Sex, and painter Bill Rice. The score was composed by Richard Sohl, keyboardist of the Patti Smith Group.[2][3][4]
Hell plays Crash, the former "king" of the downtown scene who, upon being released from jail, finds his lover (Cookie Mueller) living with Sam (Teri Toye) and assembles his old crew for a robbery.[2]
