It never rains but it pours

This should get as much respect and recognition as the other Los Angeles Noir films Chinatown and The Long Goodbye. It's all good, writing is spectacular, dialogue is just spot-on and the actors, John Heard (shoulda won all the possible awards with this performance) and Jeff Bridges in particular, are making things happen.

Sometimes he's pretty much a ghost

A perfect crime film, really.  The drug trade has gone to hell and it escalates into a shockingly exciting and bloody story about scoundrels...
