A masterful adaptation of David Peace's Ellroy-esque noir trilogy. In '1974', the first chapter, a rookie journalist looks to solve the increasingly vexing case of a serial killer on the loose.

Andrew Garfield gives a captivating performance as the idealistic journalist in way over his head. Highly recommended. find out more...
