15 Minutes
 | 15 MinutesSome people will kill for their 15 minutes Just how far will society's most desperate people go in order to get their "fifteen minutes of fame"? And just how willing is the public to watch? These questions come hurtling to the fore in John Herzfeld's smart, searing thriller 15 Minutes, which brings the edge-of-your-seat thriller into the in-your-face Media Age. Herzfeld's fresh and original take on urban life-and-crime is laced with dark humor, riveting action and incisive social commentary about the troubling crossroads where cops and criminals meet the all-powerful television cameras. At the center of 15 Minutes is a New York City double murder that must be solved. But the fast-paced story isn't so much about figuring out the truth of the murder, as following who controls that truth. This is the thriller as seen through an eye-popping new lens that of the media's hunt for shocking imagery, no matter the cost. In 15 Minutes, as the cops chase the murderers, the media chases the cops, and the whole thing fuels an escalating firestorm. Two-time Academy Award-winner Robert De Niro stars as superstar homicide detective and People magazine cover boy Eddie Flemming, who knows how to handle high-profile homicides. But now, with a crime that has ended in a grisly fire, Flemming must team up with a rival: the low-key, media-despising Arson Investigator Jordy Warsaw, played by Ed Burns. As they track down a pair of Eastern European killers on a rampage across the city, they wrangle with each other over how or whether to use the media. But Eddie and Jordy soon fall one step behind the ferociously unpredictable and clever men they are after because these criminals have learned how to spin their own stardom into an explosion of media and judicial madness. |
