Off the record, on the QT, and very hush-hush.



Bud White: "The Nite Owl case made you, do you want to tear that all down?"
Ed Exley: "With a wrecking ball, you want to help me swing it?"

Release Date: September 19, 1997
Studio: Warner Bros., New Regency
Director: Curtis Hanson
Aspect Ratio: 2.40:1 (Super 35)
Starring: Kevin Spacey, Russell Crowe, Guy Pearce, Kim Bassinger, Danny DeVito

Plot Summary: 1950's Los Angeles is the seedy backdrop for this intricate noir-ish tale of police corruption and Hollywood sleaze. Three very different cops are all after the truth, each in their own style: Ed Exley, the golden boy of the police force, willing to do almost anything to get ahead, except sell out; Bud White, ready to break the rules to seek justice, but barely able to keep his raging violence under control; and Jack Vincennes, always looking for celebrity and a quick buck until his conscience drives him to join Exley and White down the one-way path to find the truth behind the dark world of L.A. crime.

Life is not about the second chances. It's about a little mouse and his voyage to an exciting new land. That, my friend, is what life is.

Great movie and my introduction to James Ellroy's body of work.
In every age
In every place
The deeds of men
Remain the same.
