The Informers

maint — Wed, 02 Sep 2009 01:47:22 +0000

$19.99

In his bestselling novels, author Bret Easton Ellis (American Psycho, Less Than Zero) established himself as a modern chronicler of decadence, revealing dark shadows behind lives of wealth and glamour. In this new film, Ellis co-writes a script inspired by his own stories. Academy Award winners Billy Bob Thornton (SLING BLADE, 1997) and Kim Basinger (L.A. CONFIDENTIAL, 1998), Academy Award nominees Winona Ryder (LITTLE WOMEN, 1995) and Mickey Rourke (THE WRESTLER, 2009) star in an interweaving tale in the tradition of BOOGIE NIGHTS. The story unfolds in Los Angeles: a city ruled by addictions of every type -- from sex to drugs to power -- where youth is wasted, where love is fleeting, where every night is a headlong rush to the next orgy of sensation. Sooner or later, the party has to end... and the hangover is bound to be a killer. Also starring Chris Isaak, Brad Renfro in his final performance and hot up-and-comers Amber Heard (PINEAPPLE EXPRESS) and Austin Nichols (TV's "One Tree Hill"). Featuring '80s flashback music loaded with tracks from new wave recording legends.
