Strange Days
1995, 2h 25min -
Set in a dystopian Los Angeles during the last forty-eight hours of the twentieth century, Kathryn Bigelow’s hyperkinetic, cyberpunk brain-scrambler stars Ralph Fiennes as wiggy, two-bit hustler Lenny, who deals in SQUID, a black-market virtual-reality technology that records and transmits experiences directly from one person’s consciousness to another’s. But when he receives a disturbing recording of a sadistic murder, Lenny and his partner (an ass-kicking Angela Bassett) find themselves caught up in a vast conspiracy that stretches all the way to the LAPD.
