Screenplay "Chinatown"

  


 Robert Towne's "Chinatown" and later visualization by Roman Polanksi has proven to have a ubiquitous effect on film's and screenplays that followed. It is a film noir crime drama that follows a private detective named Jake Gittes. The film is about water, but is it really?

If filming were to happen today, my ideal cast would be Vincent Cassel as J.J. Gittes and Diane Lane as Evelyn Mulwray. Notes for actors to follow.
