{movie} hollywoodland (2006)

When George Reeves (Ben Affleck), the actor who famously played the Man of Steel in TV's "Adventures of Superman," turns up dead, a dogged private eye (Adrien Brody) investigates and unearths a string of strange secrets. Diane Lane and Bob Hoskins also star in this gritty noir-style drama based on the true story of one of Hollywood's most infamous mysteries, a film that marks television director Allen Coulter's feature film debut.

ireviewnetflix.com rating: **** This was an incredible film that covered two time periods, George Reeves' rise to fame as Superman and his relationship with Toni Mannix as well as the private investigation into his death. Adrien Brody and Ben Affleck are wonderful as is Diane Lane.
