About this episode
In this installment of The Screening Room, Zeth is talking about the 1997 film ‘L.A. Confidential,’ Curtis Hanson’s adaptation of the James Ellroy novel that made stars out of Russell Crowe and Guy Pearce. He gets into the challenges of filming an Ellroy book, as well as the real-life “Bloody Christmas” debacle in 1951 that led to the first ever criminal convictions for excessive force against the LAPD.
