- Cine y TV
In 1974, Roman Polanski (now a fugitive, convicted sex criminal) directed a script from Robert Towne for a film produced by Robert Evans. Set against the backdrop of Los Angeles in the 1930s, this neo-noir mystery explores wealth, power, and water in a city that is always thirsty for more of all three. Starring Jack Nicholson as private detective J.J. “Jake” Gittes, the film also features Faye Dunaway, John Huston, and Diane Ladd. Nominated for 11 Academy Awards, it won Best Screenplay and is widely considered one of the best films ever made, with the The Guardian naming it Number One in 2010. Now, fifty years since its release - and over a decade since Lobster talked about it on his first-ever movie podcast - we realize we just can’t forget about Chinatown.
