SHORT STORY
I’m really excited about Brian De Palma’s upcoming adaptation of James Ellroy’s classic noir novel The Black Dahlia. I remember discovering Ellroy for the first time with this book, and the read was like a dark fever dream. If De Palma is truly on form, he stands a chance of getting some of Ellroy’s obsessional memory piece on screen with its perversities intact.
It’s hard to tell from the trailer, but I have my hopes up.
