LA Confidential (1997) (6/10)

A fast paced movie (except for a small interval near the middle) where 5 types of cops are shown (with overlaps). How an organization has a life of its own, and how values related to morality etc. generally take a back seat. There are too many twists though. You can follow them as they are mostly linear. For some of them you feel that you should have seen it coming.

Its a bit black and white, but thats understandable. Violent as police movies can be. Not much of LA itself comes in, except for the unique glamour of Hollywood of course.
