WHERE THE TRUTH LIES
|
Set in the seemingly innocent 1950s, Where the Truth Lies centres around legendary showbiz duo Lanny (Kevin Bacon) and Vince (Colin Firth), America's most beloved entertainment team. When a dead beauty turns up in their hotel suite after a top-rated televised performance, their reputations are sullied; thanks to rock-solid alibis, however, neither is charged with a crime. With their friendship and partnership in tatters, the two manage to salvage separate careers. Two decades later, up-and-coming writer Karen O'Connor (Alison Lohman) decides to turn this cold case into a hot story. Her investigation leads to involvement, with both Lanny and Vince, and what she finds is a serpentine, shocking tale of talent and treachery, love and lust, buried truths and betrayed trust.
