More deserving

Rating: 10/10 (3 March 2003)

This film is a far more deserving candidate to win an Oscar for Best Motion Picture than the James Cameron remake of the Titanic story. It proves how out of touch and shallow AMPAS is that Titanic (1997) won the Oscar over two better candidates. This film was an odd combination of hip and smart. Terrific acting performances at all levels of the film make LA Confidential one of the 5 best films ever made.
