Summary: Exceptional Movie and Excellent 2-Disc DVD
Comment: I remember the first time I saw LA Confidential in the theater. It was at a matinee. Usually, martinee crowds are noisy, but you could hear a pin drop except for two moments in the film when everyone gasped in shock. I have watched it on videotape and DVD, and each time it's like watching it for the first time. It is truly an ensemble piece with not one performance out of place. And it is one of the tightest bit of direction and writing I have ever seen because if you blink you miss important details. The acting, directing, writing, cinematography, and music are top notch. And being from Los Angeles, I thought it captured the feel of the city in the 50's and the lighting of the city. It is "LA Film Noir" and "Cop Film Noir" at its finest.
This 2-Disc Special Edition DVD was a surprise with not only extras from the previous DVD, but also recent interviews with some of the cast and crew, an interactive tour map of LA locations used in the movie, and the Music-Only Track of Jerry Goldsmith's score. This edition was truly worth it.

Summary: One of the best Modern Film Noirs
Comment: I just finished watching this for the first time in a long time. This is an EXCELLENT film noir. Its not often a modern day noir hits the jackpot but this did. Shot back in the day when Noirs were being made like crazy. The pace is swift, the acting is fantastic, all the stars were perfect in their roles. Excellent story. It might take a few times to understand it all, but you will be truly rewarded with a fantastic movie, a must of fans of Film Noir.the cast - Kevin spacey,Russell crowe,James Ellroy,Kim basinger are just FANTASTIC.
