if you like noir then you'll love Lonely Hearts. Travolta is much better in serious roles, nice to see Gandolfini getting some love outside of Sopranos - and Salma Hayek is as usual gorgeous.
The plot is a retelling of the real life 1930s murder spree of Martha Beck and Raymond Fernandez (America's notorious "Lonely Hearts Killers") and its connection to the tragic story of Detective Elmer C. Robinson who helped capture the killers but lost his wife in the process. The director is evidently the grandson of the detective who brought the two to justice. Movie trivia if there ever was one.
I downloaded the entire movie (didn't cost me a thing) even though it's a bit of a hassle at Aol Video lonelyhearts.aolvideo.com. - j.s.s.
