Devil in a Blue Dress (1995)

Washington is just so cool in this film
Favorite Movie Quote: "A man once told me that you step out of your door in the morning, and you are already in trouble. The only question is are you on top of that trouble or not?"
A good film noir by Carl Franklin (One False Move), with great cinematography by Tak Fujimoto ("John Adams", The Sixth Sense).
Denzel Washington is fantastic as 'Easy' Rawlins, with Don Cheadle as his buddy, Mouse. They battle Tom Sizemore in their quest to find Daphne Monet (Jennifer Beals).
You have the look and feel of the 30s throughout with the costuming, the cars, the talk, the cops, and the feel of the movie. It was a great nostalgia trip.
Lisa Nicole Carson ("Ally McBeal") also added some excitement before her premature death.
This was based on the first of Walter Mosely's Easy Rawlins books, and it is a good one.

This is one of my favorite Tom Sizemore movies.......He was great, Washington was great and this was the Don Cheadle that I liked before he got more famous....
I own this one and watch it regularly. |
