"Off the record, on the Q-T, and very hush-hush."
It's noir time again on We Love Dad Movies! With Ewan recently finishing the third of James Ellroy's L.A. Quartet books, now seemed like as good a time as any to dive into Curtis Hanson and Brian Helgeland's late nineties masterpiece - the 1997 adaptation of L.A. Confidential. Join Ewan and Zan as they discuss the chemical draw of noir fiction, why Ellroy's prose is so devastatingly effective, and what makes the movie such a great adaptation despite leaving reams of material on the cutting room floor.
