The Black Dahlia 2006 American mystery thriller review
Mutilated body of young woman Elizabeth Short is found on the empty lot in Los Angeles. Two police detectives start the investigation that will lead them to a dark side of the city.
Film based on a true murder of Elizabeth Short was made in a style of film noir and the creators have followed one of the theories behind the murder - that she might have been only one of few such victims. Unfortunately the murder and investigation is only a part of rather long film and the other subplots were not interesting enough to keep the movie flow smoothly.
