Chinatown
Whoa!
I just finished watching this movie for maybe the 5th or 6th time, and I have to ask, has a better crime/detective movie ever been made? In fact I'm tempted to drop the genre qualifier and inquire for any better movies that may be out there, period. It just blows me away every time.
For anyone who might not have heard about it or seen it, do so. The sooner the better.
It's a 1974 Roman Polanski film starring Jack Nicholson, Faye Dunaway and John Huston. Set in the 1930's, it's often classified as a film noir or neo-noir movie, and it's about a private investigator who is hired to investigate an alleged extra-marital affair, but who gradually uncovers an intricate conspiracy around the future water supplies for the city of Los Angeles. Enough said about the story... you should see this movie.
Talk about Chinatown - or other similar movies that you've enjoyed.
