This month, I am giving away a must-have neo-noir triple feature from Warner Bros. on Blu-ray: “Body Heat” (1981, Lawrence Kasdan), “L.A. Confidential” (1997, Curtis Hanson) and “The Player” (1992, Robert Altman). I will post reviews of “Body Heat” and “The Player” later this month.

great movies thanks
Please enter me. Thanks.
Very hard to choose among those three, but I guess my favorite is “L. A. Confidential.”
Three modern classics by three great best directors. Kasdan never made a better movie than Body Heat and Hanson was never better than in L. A. Confidential. Kevin Spacey, Russell Crowe, Kim Basinger are fantastic. The best line of all: Kathleen Turner to William Hurt in Body Heat: “You’re not very smart are you? I like that in a man.”
Excellent choices! The Player is one of the finest and darkest Hollywood movies ever.
Love, love, love LA Confidential. So good.
