Synopsis
The Departed
To take down South Boston's Irish Mafia, the police send in one of their own to infiltrate the underworld, not realizing the syndicate has done likewise. While an undercover cop curries favor with the mob kingpin, a career criminal rises through the police ranks. But both sides soon discover there's a mole among them.
The Red Line
Three women fall prey to a ruthless phone scam. To settle the score, they'll take on the criminal network that stole their money — and their dignity.
