L.A. Confidential is the 1997 crime noir film co-written and directed by Curtis Hanson and was an adaptation of the novel of the same name written by James Ellroy (the crime novelist whose stories have been adapted for such films as The Black Dahlia, Cop, and Dark Blue). Set in the early 1950s, the film follows three LAPD detectives whose paths cross during an investigation into a multiple homicide that involved a former officer. The film's cast includes Russell Crowe, Kevin Spacey, Guy Pearce, James Cromwell and Kim Basinger, who received an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her role as Lynn Bracken. L.A. Confidential was later adapted for television twice, in a 1999 unsold pilot for FOX that starred Kiefer Sutherland as Det. Jack Vincennes (see below) and then in an unsold 2018 television pilot for CBS that starred Walton Goggins as Det. Jack Vincennes. In 2015, the United States Library of Congress selected L.A. Confidential for preservation in the National Film Registry, finding it "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".

-== Colt Official Police ==
+== Colt Police Positive ==
-Exley tells Capt. Smith that the cook grabbed a .38 caliber revolver but was murdered before he could use it. From looking at the revolver and the grips the revolver can be identified as a Colt revolver. It appears to have the rounded grips that the company went to in the mid-1930's and the exposed ejector rod that was a Colt signature until the late sixties. It's a [[Colt Official Police]] as the frame size is too large to be a Police Positive and the grip size too large to be a Pocket Positive.
+Near the start of the film, Bud White disarms Leland "Buzz" Meeks (Darrell Sandeen) of his revolver, which appears to be a [[Colt Police Positive]], as the frame size and grips are too small to be a [[Colt Official Police]]. When Ed Exley visits the Nite Owl crime scene, he sees what appears to be the same model revolver near the dead cook's hand, later telling Capt. Smith that the cook appears to have reached for this revolver but was murdered before he could use it.

 == Ithaca 37 ==
-Almost as commonly seen as the [[Colt Detective Special]], several LAPD officers carry the 12-gauge [[Ithaca 37]]. The Nite Owl shooters were said to have used 12-gauge pump shotguns with a five-shell capacity. Breuning ([[Tomas Arana]]), Carlisle, Exley, and White are among the officers seen using this shotgun throughout the film. Carlisle and Exley carry these during the Bunker Hill apartment raid, leading to Exley's "Shotgun Ed" moniker. At the Victory Motel shootout finale, Bud White uses the shotgun with great effect before Exley grabs it and uses it to ultimately shoot Dudley Smith.

+=L.A. Confidential (unsold pilot)=
+[[Image:LAC2003_poster.jpg|thumb|right|300px| ''L.A. Confidential'' (2003)]]
+'''''L.A. Confidential''''' was also adapted as an 2003 unsold pilot written to be a prequel to the film starring [[Kiefer Sutherland]] as Det. Jack Vincennes, [[David Conrad]] as Det. Ed Exley, [[Josh Hopkins]] as Officer Bud White, [[Melissa George]] as Lynn Bracken, and [[Tom Nowicki]] as Captain Dudley Smith. Originally planned for a 13 episode run on HBO, the premium channel eventually passed on the project. The FOX network then ordered a pilot, but declined to pick it up as a series. Filmed in 1999 and intended to air in 2000, the pilot did not air on television until the fall of 2003. Though intended to be a prequel, the pilot differs from the film on a few facts, like Bud White's first meeting with Lynn Bracken and Ed Exley already working for Internal Affairs. The episode ends in a cliffhanger, one which will never be resolved. The entire episode is available as a special feature on home video copies of ''L.A. Confidential'' the film.
+<br>
+''Note: The episode lacks opening and closing titles, not even a title card, and the IMDB page is sparse, thus many of the actors cannot be properly credited.''
