Brian DePalma will be directing and it'll be a mix of fiction and true facts of the real story. Elizabeth Short was an aspiring actress that was found cut in half in a vacant lot in L. A. in 1947 - the murder was dubbed the Black Dahlia and went unsolved. It became the most notorious murder in California's history.
I'm looking forward to checking this out. It's rated R, so it might have some teeth. It's due in theatres Sept 15th. Starring Josh Hartnett, Scarlett Johansson and Hillary Swank

I might check it out myself, I like movies that are a little grittier. I'm also interested in seeing Snakes on a Plane and Idlewild. What about you?

This is an obsession of mine, and my husband is going to take me to see it on our anniversary. I can't wait.
This story also reminds me of a close friend, she would dye her hair black like Snow White, but I would call her my Black Dahlia. She died mysteriously too, different circumstances.I miss her, and watching this movie, I will pretend she is there with me!
