LA Confidential

I love Been-Seen's movie atlas feature. The most recent one is LA Confidential:

If you don't mind peeking through the embellishments, LA Confidential is a great way to see Los Angeles. By embellishments I mean the trappings imposed on the city by the filmmakers to create a Fifties crime drama. It's named after the city. It's steeped in it. And it was filmed almost entirely on location, with only a few actual sets created for the movie.
