Review of Devil in a Blue Dress (1995) by Dave R — 08 Jun 2012

A man down on his luck gets sucked into LA's underworld because he needs the money to save his home. denzel is quite good but you really have to pay attention to people's names in this film or else you'll be lost.

although it has the look of, and is set in, the same time period as "chinatown" (1974) the theme is quite different. "chinatown" explored the difference between appearance and reality; here explore the segregation of 1940s america.

don cheadle is really good in his supporting role.
