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 nightclubs, it's a city of corruption, double-dealing, and dangerous passions. A horrific mass murder shatters the simmering facade as three cops, each with his own private agenda for solving the case, are inextricably linked in a dangerously tightening spiral where justice and truth may cost them everything.
Based on James Ellroy's epic masterpiece, this screenplay of L.A. Confidential is being published to coincide with the release of the Warner Bros. film starring Kevin Spacey, Russell Crowe, Guy Pearce, James Cromwell, David Strathairn, Kim Basinger, and Danny DeVito. |
