Synopsis

Dream team Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone (‘Crazy Stupid Love’) reunite for a different sort of outing in this crime drama set in 1940s and ’50s Los Angeles. Gosling is Sgt Jerry Wooters , part of an LAPD task force attempting to keep the East Coast mafia out of town, while we can only presume that Stone is the glamorous and sassy love interest. Also on board are Sean Penn, Josh Brolin, Giovanni Ribisi and Nick Nolte – add ‘Zombieland’ director Ruben Fleischer at the helm and you’ve got a promising array of talent for this retro crime flick.
