Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Death Wish is a 1972 crime novel by Brian Garfield.After his wife and daughter are attacked in their New York City apartment, leaving the former dead and the latter mentally incapacitated, previously-liberal CPA Paul Benjamin starts resenting how "softly" crime is being handled, and decides to take a more direct approach on law enforcement in his neighborhood.A successful film adaptation was made in 1974, directed by Michael Winner and starring Charles Bronson. In 1975 Garfield wrote a sequel novel titled Death Sentence (itself adapted into a film in 2008), while 2018 would see the original novel get adapted again, this time starring Bruce Willis but moving the location to Chicago instead of New York. | |
