To Live and Die in L.A.

(1985)Directed by William Friedkin116 min · RCrime, Thriller, Action
“A federal agent is dead. A killer is loose. And the City of Angels is about to explode.”

In 1985 Los Angeles, a Secret Service agent is killed days before retirement, and his partner Richard Chance (William L. Petersen) wants the counterfeiter responsible, Rick Masters (Willem Dafoe). William Friedkin sends Chance and his new partner John Vukovich (John Pankow) after him, with Wang Chung's score pushing every chase. Chance doesn't care about procedure, only about getting Masters, and he drags Vukovich along with him.
