The film does an amazing job of recreating the early 1980's era & LA locale, and the 1970's/early 1980's soundtrack is spot-on as well. Great acting & story also.

Agree completely that this is a good companion piece to watch along with Boogie Nights (1997), another great film about that era.

After re-watching the film & doing some research on the crime, it definitely looks like JH was involved in what happened. However, it's not clear to what extent. I guess we'll never know what exactly happened that day.

I loved the way we see the murders from multiple points of view. This is a very underrated movie.
