Revision as of 06:06, 11 February 2010
Insomnia is a 2002 thriller starring Al Pacino as Will Dormer, a sleep-deprived LAPD detective who travels to Alaska to investigate a murder in a small town. Robin Williams plays a novelist who could provide the key to solving the murder and Hilary Swank is the young Alaskan police detective who looks to Dormer for guidance. The film was directed by Christoper Nolan (The Dark Knight) and is a remake of a 1997 Norwegian film.
The following guns were seen in the film Insomnia:
WARNING! SPOILERS AHEAD!
Smith & Wesson 4505
The Smith & Wesson 4505 is the primary sidearm of LAPD Detectives Will Dormer (Al Pacino) and Hap Eckhart (Martin Donovan).
Walther PPK
Dormer also carries a Walther PPK as a backup weapon. He keeps in the three o'clock position in a back holster. In the film it is referred to as being a 9mm, which it would be if it is chambered in .380ACP. The German caliber of that is 9mm Kurz (short).
Smith & Wesson Model 10
Walter Finch (Robin Williams) keeps a Smith & Wesson Model 10, .38 Special that once belonged to his uncle. Detective Farrell (Larry Holden) is shot in the leg with one in the beachfront scene. Dormer finds it and later uses it to try and frame Finch for shooting his partner Hap Eckhart. However, Finch outsmarts Dormer and passes the frame on to Randy Stetz (Jonathan Jackson).
Glock 23
Glock 23 handguns are carried by several Nightmute police officers including Ellie Burr (Hilary Swank). In their discussion of the discoverd 9mm shell casing, Ellie mentions that "none of us carries a 9mm weapon or a backup weapon," which means that they are likely carrying .40 caliber Glocks. Finch is seen later holding one.
Double Barreled Shotgun
Finch (Robin Williams) shoots at Dormer and Ellie Burr with a 12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun at the film's climax at the fishing cabin.
