The story was so big and sprawling that Ellroy himself thought it could never be made into a movie, but, with the proper respect for the material, they did it.Mike Dennishttp://mikedennisnoir.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7119990365479009764.post-1852083720283907752011-10-14T08:14:27.818-05:002011-10-14T08:14:27.818-05:00Good choices, I have all 3 on DVD...
Midnight Run ...Good choices, I have all 3 on DVD...<br />Midnight Run is so terribly underrated because it functions as a drama if you yank out the good actors and put in boring ones. Farina, DeNiro, Grodin, John Ashton and the straight men... I mean Yaphet Kotto never disappoints. So memorable.<br /><br />L.A. Confidential is an excellent adaptation, but I felt the edge had been taken off the knife. I suppose it had to be that way for Hollywood to touch it.Thomas Pluckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17008022962076648740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7119990365479009764.post-74819387092525530102011-10-14T07:43:18.367-05:002011-10-14T07:43:18.367-05:00Thanks for reminding me of MIDNIGHT RUN, a favorit...Thanks for reminding me of MIDNIGHT RUN, a favorite of mine I haven't seen for while. I'm off to my NetFliz queue soon as I'm done here.<br /><br />I wasn't aware of SHALLOW GRAVE, but you've talked me into it.<br /><br />LA CONFIDENTIAL is, as you say, pretty much a perfect movie. James Cromwell steals the show. He's one of the best character actors of his generation, if not the best.Dana Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01350344882342624735noreply@blogger.com
