    The Black Dahlia

    This looks really good, plus it has Scarlett and Mia Kirshner in it

    It doesnt hurt that it is based on a James Ellroy novel and directed by Brian De Palma, probably the movie I am looking forward to most that is coming out soon...

    looks good indeed. plus its part of the trilogy of books that included LA Confidential, which also kicked ass. should be quality.

        saw this yesterday, enjoyed it. i read the book just before and there were many differences, but they did a good job with it

            can't wait for this one. the cast looks great and De Palma is one of the best.

                it was actually a quartet of books... only two of which have been made into movies.

                1. the black dahlia
                2. the big nowhere
                3. l.a. confidential
                4. white jazz

                  I just saw this - I didnt know it was part of a trilogy - it IS very similar in movie style to LA confidential.
                  liked it a lot - you gotta pay attnetion tho - lots of plot twists and turns!

                          Yeah I thought this wasn't very good...I've had it on DVD for a long time so I didn't think it was that new...LA confidential is the shit compared to this!
                          And anyway I wanted to ask how is it a trilogy if there are four parts to it?!

                            this movie had great potential. but two people ruined it.

                            josh hartnett --> why? because he isn't tough. he has a queer name and is not a good action guy

                            hillary swank --> why? because she isn't hot, even when she tries to be. and she over acts every scene in this movie.

                            i only stomached it til the end cos i wanted hartnett to get shot in the face.

                              I haven't seen the movie but the book was great. A little long but worth it.
