Jack Nicholson shines opposite Faye Dunaway in director Roman Polanski's neo-noir classic Chinatown.
More like a classic hard-boiled detective film of the Golden Age, Chinatown never really relies on harsh language, violence or sex to blanket it in the broody, dark atmosphere it relishes in. The story starts out quite simple then builds in well-paced complexity but never so much it loses the viewer.
Classy film-making at some of it's best.
