DVD - The Singing Detective
 "Click to view larger image")
Oscar nominee Robert Downey Jr. "gives the performance of his career" in this acclaimed, all-star movie that weaves sly-comedy, suspenseful film noir and spirited musical numbers into one of the most original productions in years.
When it comes to murder, seduction and betrayal, pulp-fiction author Dan Dark (Downey) wrote the book. But now, he's living it. Languishing in a hospital room with an immobilizing condition, Dark has lost himself in the fictional world of his alter ego, a hardboiled detective and dance-band singer living in 1950s Los Angeles.
As Dark's grasp on reality continues to slip, he's place under the care of an enigmatic psychiatrist (Oscar® winner Mel Gibson). Together, they plunge into the mystery of Dark's psyche, where everyone is suspect and danger waits at every turn.
Co-starring Robin Wright Penn, Jeremy Northam, Katie Holmes, Carla Gugino and Oscar winner Adrien Brody, The Singing Detective hits all the right notes.
