From the acclaimed director of "Scarface" and the author of "LA Confidential"
comes the mysterious, spellbinding thriller "The Black Dahlia."
In 1947, two
ambitious cops, Lee Blanchard (Aaron Eckhart) and Bucky Bleichert (Josh
Hartnett), investigate the shocking and gruesome murder of an aspiring young
starlet Elizabeth Short, aka "The Black Dahlia."
With a corpse so mutilated that
photos are kept from the public, the case becomes an obsession for the men, and
their lives begin to unravel. Blanchard’s relationship with his girlfriend Kay
(Scarlett Johansson) is threatened, while Bleichert finds himself drawn to the
enigmatic Madeleine (Hilary Swank), a wealthy woman with a dark and twisted
connection to the victim.
