The success led to a major Hollywood film option before the book even hit shelves.
“People love the movie L.A. Confidential,” Ellroy toldThe Times in 2023. “I think it’s turkey of the highest form. I think Russell Crowe and Kim Basinger are impotent. The director died, so now I can disparage the movie.”
“It’s hard to know exactly what’ll happen, even if you have watched the movie adaptation that came out later in the 1990s (which is very good, albeit quite streamlined and not 100% accurate, as a result),” Collider added.
“I have been obsessed with crime since the hot Sunday afternoon of June 22, 1958, when a policeman named Ward Hallinen squatted down to my little kid level and said, ‘Son, your mother has been killed,’ ” he told The Times in a separate interview last year.
“James Ellroy writes immensely unnerving and consistently hard-to-predict stories, often of a noir nature, with L.A. Confidential being one of his best, and also one of his fastest-paced,” Collider concluded.
