The Onion Field

In March of 1963, Los Angeles cops Karl Hettinger (John Savage) and Ian Campbell (Ted Danson) flagged down a vehicle over an illegal U-turn. They were met at gunpoint by thieves Greg Powell (James Woods) and Jimmy Smith (Franklyn Seals)... and the harrowing hours that followed saw one of the officers slain, with a years-long slog through the courts for the case waiting to torment the survivor. Grim take on Joseph Wambaugh's true-crime opus co-stars Ronny Cox, Christopher Lloyd. 122 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: English. Region Free
