昏暗冰冷的审讯室内，满身伤痕的私家侦探内德·克鲁兹（安东尼奥·班德拉斯 Antonio Banderas 饰）正在接受波利（威廉·菲德内尔 William Fichtner 饰）等三名洛杉矶警察的残酷质询。他被指控撞人致死，在拳脚的胁迫下，内德缓缓道出了这几天的经历。他最先讲述了当红偶像明星同性恋丑闻引发的杀人事件，这是整个故事的开端。随后，在那个潮湿而神秘的夜晚，内德遇见身形巨大、长相凶恶的来自俄罗斯的前拳击手安东·普罗托夫（罗伯特·梅耶 Robert Maillet 饰）。安东雇佣内德寻找一名失踪的脱衣舞女，而这一切似乎又与安东背后的俄罗斯黑帮有着千丝万缕的关系。 不久，安东死于非命，内德则继续寻找舞女的下落。在这一过程中，接受过他询问的人不断死亡。内德走上了一条光怪陆离的神秘之路……
好莱坞著名编剧达尔顿·特朗勃的传记片。 特朗勃上世纪30年代进入好莱坞当编剧，奉献过《罗马假日》、《出埃及记》、《斯巴达克斯》、《约翰尼上战场》等经典作品。在荣誉背后，特朗勃的职业生涯实际上非常坎坷，他在40年代末遭到非美活动委员会(HUAC)的迫害，被米高梅于1950年解雇，并蹲了大牢。出狱后他被政府列进黑名单，一度无法工作，特朗勃就借用他人名字创作剧本。他曾凭借《罗马假日》与《勇敢的人》夺下两座最佳编剧的小金人，但当时剧本的作者署的都不是他的名字。直到1960年，特朗勃才走出迫害，他的编剧才华才得以重见天日。

《埃尔塞: 将近改变世界的人》讲述的是刺杀希特勒事件，但影片里的史实比《行动目标希特勒》要早几年。1939年。希特勒差一点被一个名叫埃尔塞的木匠干掉。那一年，希特勒的权力正在逐渐迈向顶峰，当大多数人都在狂热崇拜之时，埃尔塞成了少数几个的正义斗士。在精密的计划之下，他在希特勒演讲的讲台附近设置一个定时炸弹。可惜的是，希特勒的演讲结束得太早，炸弹引爆时希特勒已经不在现场。埃尔塞在当年11月遭到了纳粹的逮捕，遭处决。影片讲述了一段惊心动魄的故事，本土演员的演出保持了原汁原味。
Fraught with over obvious symbolism, Hartley's early feature is nonetheless a joy to watch. Hal here shows us his uncanny ability to cast his characters perfectly came early in his career. Adrienne Shelley is a near perfect foil to herself, equal parts annoying teen burgeoning in her sexuality (though using sex for several years); obsessed with doom and inspired by idealism gone wrong she is deceptively – and simultaneously – complex and simple. Her Audrey inspires so many levels of symbolism it is almost embarrassingly rich (e.g., her modeling career beginning with photos of her foot – culminating her doing nude (but unseen) work; Manhattan move; Europe trip; her stealing, then sleeping with the mechanics wrench, etc.) As Josh, Robert Burke gives an absolutely masterful performance. A reformed prisoner/penitent he returns to his home town to face down past demons, accept his lot and begin a new life. Dressed in black, and repeatedly mistaken for a priest, he corrects everyone ("I'm a mechanic"), yet the symbolism is rich: he abstains from alcohol, he practices celibacy (is, in fact a virgin), and seemingly has taken on vows of poverty, and humility as well. The humility seems hardest to swallow seeming, at times, almost false, a pretense. Yet, as we learn more of Josh we see genuineness in his modesty, that his humility is indeed earnest and believable. What seems ironic is the character is fairly forthright in his simplicity, yet so richly drawn it becomes the viewer who wants to make him out as more than what he actually is. A fascinatingly written character, perfectly played. The scene between Josh and Jane (a wonderful, young Edie Falco . . . "You need a woman not a girl") is hilarious . . . real. But Hartley can't leave it as such and his trick, having the actors repeat the dialogue over-and-over becomes frustratingly "arty" and annoying . . . until again it becomes hilarious. What a terrific sense of bizarre reality this lends the film (like kids in a perpetual "am not"/"are too" argument). Hartley's weaves all of a small neighborhood's idiosyncrasies into a tapestry of seeming stereotypes but which delves far beneath the surface, the catalyst being that everyone believes they know what the "unbelievable truth" of the title is, yet no two people can agree (including our hero) on what exactly that truth is. A wonderful little movie with some big ideas.
