The Black Dahlia / U.S.A. / 2006

For all De Palma’s stylistic flourishes, there’s nothing here (themes and acting) that wasn’t done much better in L.A. Confidential, a film I’m not otherwise much of a fan of. Still, picking out the allusions to The Big Sleep can be fun, but to be honest we could have all done without the lurid solution to the mystery.
