Synopsis
L.A. Confidential
Three detectives in the corrupt and brutal L.A. police force of the 1950s use differing methods to uncover a conspiracy behind the shotgun slayings of the patrons at an all-night diner.
Road
Two exes take a dual-purpose road trip: allow Margaret (Catherine Kellner), a freelance photographer, to complete her assignment to check up on toxic waste sites along the U.S.-Canadian border, and deliver Jay (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) home to his mother's house in Detroit. The trip takes a turn for the weird as they begin to suspect they are trapped.
