(1988)Directed by Dennis Hopper120 min · RAction, Crime, Drama, Thriller

“70,000 gang members. One million guns. Two cops.”

Danny McGavin (Sean Penn) is a cocky young LAPD rookie, paired with Bob Hodges (Robert Duvall), a veteran patrolling gang territory in late-1980s South Central, Echo Park and East L.A. Hodges works slowly and talks to people. Danny wants to kick doors. Dennis Hopper's film is about a city carved into blocks where a color on your back says who you answer to, and who might kill you for it.
