A noir film about uncovering corruption as three officers investigate a bloody multiple homicide.

One of the best movies of the year, LA Confidential is a fine, refreshing crime drama. If you've grown tired of the cookie cutter crime dramas from Hollywood in the recent past, give this one a look. You may be pleasantly surprised.

Directed by Curtis Hanson.

Academy Awards for Best Supporting Actress (Bassinger), Best Adapted Screenplay and nominated for Best Picture
