The Black Dahlia - the 2006 movie.?

I was a kind of lost while watching The Black Dahlia... bits and pieces made sense, but I had a hard time getting the overall picture. I can't find a good plot summary online... can someone provide me with one? Thanks.

Ditto. I'm still confused about what exactly happened and I couldn't concentrate on the movie to save my life.

I think this is about the only synopsis on the web. I think everyone just wanted to forget about this movie. :)
Reply:I was so looking forward to that movie, having read a lot on the case online and in the books. I felt the movie was a let-down and it should have been called anything but Black Dahlia.


I did understand what was going on, but I kept losing interest, since it was so very slow and dragged out.
Reply:Thankfully I picked it up as one of the MVP's at Hollywood Video a couple of weeks ago so it didn't cost me anything to find out I'm glad I didn't spend any money to see this mess.





I like Josh Hartnett's acting, and Scarlett Johansson...well, she's enough to want me to see any movie she's in...BUT not this one...


their talent went totally wasted in this nonsensical yawner.

they also have a message board where people give their opinions about the movie....helps me sometimes
Reply:what makes the black dahlia worthy of attention albeit slight, is the noirish thinking of our country and law enforcement at that time. here was a woman , relatively unknown , who moved to California and had a troubled early life. most of the infamous detail is in the way she was killed. she was mutilated and severed at the waist. after many claims and leads the crime went unsolved and the ugly death became a myth. that's when the stories got further amplified. every town has a ghost . Betty Short became California's ghost in january of 1947. i have included the sites for the many details.
Reply:That movie didn't make a lick of sense to me either.
