L.A. Confidential - 1997

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

Plot: A shooting at an all night diner is investigated by three LA policemen in their own unique ways.

Story: 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.

Did you know: Jerry Goldsmith, who got an Academy Award nomination for this movie's score, replaced Elmer Bernstein.
