Three detectives in the corrupt and brutal L.A. police force of the 1950s use differing methods to uncover a conspiracy behind the shotgun slayings of the patrons at an all-night diner.
Review
L.A. Confidential
Dark and layered. The kind of movie that doesn’t really exist any more. It’s also got themes that wouldn’t really work — police brutality, dirty cops, and the whole Kevin Spacy thing. It’s still a great movie, though.
