'Mulholland Falls' is essentially a remake of 'Chinatown' with shades of (the then forthcoming) 'L.A. Confidential' thrown in. Nick Nolte is with "the hat squad", plan clothed cops who skirt the law to uphold the law. Nick's ex mistress Jennifer Connelly turns up dead, sending him on a journy into a world of high end corruption. I side more with Siskel then Ebert on this one, couldn't get past the cliches and the better films this reminded me of. **
