One of the Best of Modern Classic Noir

Rating: 10/10 (14 June 2019)

Yet another in the long line of movies I have been meaning to see but putting off for some reason, "L.A. Confidential" might have captured my top Noir slot. Maybe it was just my laziness and lack of investigating that made me think it was going to be some boring, people talking movie but I couldn't have been more wrong.
Sure it has its talky scenes but these are punctuated throughout by grisly murders, seductions, police raids, and shoot outs, and yet, it doesn't skimp on story, character, cinematography, or humor.
