The director takes you inside his dirty cop drama.
If there’s one thing “Rampart” tells us, it’s do not crash into Woody Harrelson’s cop car. If that happens, he will beat you. That’s precisely what happens in Oren Moverman’s gripping police drama, where a videotaped incident turns into downwardly cascading chain of events for the rogue officer. It’s being hailed as a breakthrough performance for the actor, putting his dirty cop alongside Harvey Keitel and Nicolas Cage’s “Bad Lieutenant.”
At the helm of this all is Moverman, the man behind the acclaimed indie hit “The Messenger” (also starring Harrelson), who co-wrote “Rampart” with “L.A. Confidential” novelist James Ellroy. To get a better look at the film, Moverman agreed to participate in our Call-In Commentary series, where filmmakers provide commentary to their movie trailer. In the video below, hear Moverman describe a fuller understanding of his chief character and how the trailer mirrors the movie itself. “Rampart” opens this Friday.
