An incredible job, just because I think that almost the most perfect synthesis of actors has been achieved under the same script. Billy Bob Thornton, Kim Basinger, Winona Ryder, Mickey Rourke, Brad Renfro, Chris Isaak, Jon Foster, Amber Heard and Rhys Ifansare just a few of the many brilliant names featured in this film.
«The informants»Revolves around seven short stories, starring an executive from the film industry, played by Billy Bob Thornton, over the course of a week, with each story featuring his wife, Kim Basinger, his lover, Winona Ryder, and a kidnapper, Mickey Rourke, among many others. All the stories take place in the city of Los Angeles, becoming almost one more character in the film.
The film was directed by Gregor Jordan, known for his previous works "Buffalo Soldiers", and "Ned Kelly". And the script was written by Bret Easton Ellis, author of the novel from which the film arises, which is "The Confidants." And alongside him, Nicholas Jarecki also participated.
Something interesting is that this film will be striking for the press and the public, not only for its plot and performances, but also because it has the last participation on the big screen of Brad Renfro, known for his roles in "The Client" and "Summer of Corruption", who passed away in early 2008 from a heroin and morphine overdose.
A film that I think promises a lot, and that we should not stop seeing.
