L.A. Confidential
L.A. Confidential: The Screenplay | Brian Helgeland, Curtis Hanson
1 post | 4 to read
Los Angeles in the early '50s. A booming city anxious to shed its small-town skin. A city being touted as the metropolis of the future, L.A. is practically paradise on earth. That's the image. The reality is something different. From its fabulous mansions to its sizzling night-clubs, it's a city of corruption, double-dealing, and dangerous passions. Based on the novel and with an introduction by James Ellroy.

RIP director Curtis Hanson, whose steady hand guided a trio of very challenging book to movie adaptations: Wonder Boys, Too Big to Fail, and LA Confidential. For many years, LA Con was my favorite movie of all time. He will be deeply missed.
