LA Confidential film review
LA Confidential is a really good film.It is only one of the best movies of 1997. It is a story of three different cops drawn together to solve a murder that has everyone as a suspect. Russell Crowe plays Bud White a good but very violent cop. Kevin Spacey plays Jack Vincennes a cop who loves the spotlight, he is showing to Hollywood how to be a real cop, he gets information by Danny De Vito who plays publisher Sid Hudgeons, for an exchange . Finally, Guy Pearce plays Ed Exly, he is a good cop but he is to scared to make mistakes and he is against violence and very different from other two cops. The three cops can't stand each other, but must work together to find out just what went on in that mysterious murder. This film also has a love line to it, Bud White (Crowe) falls in love with Lynn Bracken played by Kim Basinger who is a prostitute that looks like Veronica Lake a famous actress of that time. Kim Basinger took the Academy Award for best supporting actress and I think she deserves it. James Cromwell plays Dudley Smith head of the LAPD. The film was nominated for nine Academy Awards all together.
This film is a crime drama. Actors did a good job playing roles, LA Confidential film is old, but people all over the world are still watching it just because it shows the atmosphere of those times and how people were during that time. Cops were working but now they are lazy and they don't care much about completing their job anymore.
