Jason Thompson is our resident expert on crime author James Ellroy. So it surprises no one when he leapt at the chance to join Dennis to discuss Curtis Hanson’s critically-acclaimed “L.A. Confidential” from 1997. This muscular, exquisitely crafted thriller about celebrity, crime and police corruption not only pays homage to classic noir of the 40’s and 50’s, but confidently earns its place alongside it. Life is good in Los Angeles, it’s paradise on Earth...that’s what they tell you, anyway.
