Salton Sea, The

Salton Sea, The

2002

Punk-rocking speed freak Danny Parker (Val Kilmer) freelances as an informant for brutal narcotics cops Al Garcetti (Anthony LaPaglia) and Gus Morgan (Doug Hutchison). But when he's not assisting the cops on drug busts, Danny gets high and leads a double life as a talented, mild-mannered trumpeter named Tom Van Allen. One personality is in search of his wife's killer, but reality is evasive in director P.J. Caruso's neo-noir crime thriller.

If You're Looking For The Truth, You've Come To The Wrong Place.
