A black comedy directed by Brian De Palma, starring Tom Hanks, Bruce Willis and Morgan Freeman.
A reporter follows the story of a rich man whose mistress hit a poor, black man with his car when they were being robbed after missing a freeway exit. The reporter publishes a book about this story and becomes rich.
When I say "black comedy", I mean that it may have been intended to be funny, but was not. Real comedies usually involve more absurd situations and are clearly meant to be funny, but I don't get the jokes because comedy isn't my deal. All of the film elements (plot, characters, pacing, setting and style) were extremely mediocre. Hence, I'm rating this o.k.
