"Chinatown" is praised for its classic status, with standout performances by Nicholson and Dunaway. Nicholson is noted for perfectly fitting his role, while Dunaway complements him well. The film features themes of political corruption and old-school LA sleuthing, with a memorable scene involving a nose bandage.
Understandably a classic. Great performances, political corruption, sleuthing around old school LA, and I mean, he wears a bandage on his NOSE. Craziness! 3.7 (+/- .75 for bias)
Nicholson and Dunaway nominated for Oscars. Great film and Nicholson shines. He fits the character perfectly. I am not a Dunaway fan, but she is an excellent counterpart to Nicholson.
