Dark Blue Updated :

Thursday 30th January 2003: Dark Blue Update:
Kurt Russell has been talking about his next movie Dark Blue that will be released in America on 21st February. " I like James
Elroy's style.It's an actor's piece. There was something about the
importance of the message that I liked and that I've wanted to see done.
We don't have all the money in the world and these kinds of movies often find themselves in that position. You've got to pitch in yourself. You've got to love these kind of pictures to do them. ... Everything has been done to give these
characters a chance to flourish. They are well-drawn people with
extremely good actors playing them.
There is a huge side of (Perry) that's likeable. He is the kind of guy you hear a joke from and you laugh hard because it's funny. However, he mixes that with a volatility and a hatred for certain criminals that is real. I think that's what's going to be interesting to see & where the audience lets Eldon off the hook
and where they reject him. ... He is a man who, in the course of the
film, is going to find out how far over the line he's gone."
