A&E > Movie: Mulholland Falls (1996)

Starring Nick Nolte, Melanie Griffith, Chazz Palminteri, Chris Penn, Jennifer Connally, John Malkovich, and Daniel Baldwin.

Noir crime movie set in Los Angeles during the 1940s. The plot involves a murdered woman and her ties to the U.S. nuclear weapons program. It's complicated by the fact that Nolte's detective character and the woman had an affair that was caught on film.

If you liked 1997's LA Confidential, you'll like this movie. It's not up the to the same standard, but it's a great TV flick if you catch it on AMC.
