L.A. Confidential

Convoluted action drama thriller mystery period piece from James Ellroy's novel. Directed by Curtis Hanson and never a dull moment. Over-the-top acting by Russel Crowe (tough cop), Kevn Spacey (charismatic cop), Guy Pearce (intelligent cop), James Cromwell (dirty cop), Kim Bassinger (high-priced prostitute), Danny Devito (businessman), and more! Lots of plots and subplots - seems members of the LA police force are involved in drugs and plenty of money and you just don't know who to trust. Full of violence, killing, and some sex and romance too. Long movie but time goes quickly ! Fun fun.
