Query: Why would DePalma do this movie?

I love Nic Cage, but he is simply miscast here. We never believe him as the loveably crooked charmer, nor as a highly respected and influential detective. The plot is SO predictable and worn, we wonder why someone like Depalma would be interested in shooting it. Because it is beautifully shot. This movie is for DePalma freaks only, although it did have a nice preformance by a lovely creature named Carla Gugino.
