Description

Set during the 1970s in smog-ridden Los Angeles, The Nice Guys is the story about a washed-up Los Angeles private investigator (Ryan Gosling) who reluctantly partners with a former fighter (Russell Crowe) to look into the apparent suicide of a fading adult film star. In classic Shane Black fashion, the film is at its heart a buddy movie; in spite of its dark subject matter, the story comes with tremendous wit and humor. The book will include observations from writer/director Shane Black, Executive Producer Joel Silver, and other crew; still photographs, story boards, and inspirations for recreating the look of LA in the mid-1970s; and other ephemera such as Black’s annotated script. The movie The Nice Guys is equal parts mystery and a love letter to a Los Angeles of long ago, and The Nice Guys: From Script to Screen is sure to captivate fans of the film and of Los Angeles alike.
