Rating:  - Crime Story
While I am a transplant to Chicaga (the way the locals say it) the 'real' feel of the locations seep into this video. The main characters of Ray Luca and Mike Torello join in a pas de deux of crime and justice. Luca is amoral, staying strictly focused on making money as easily as possible, while Torello is so squarely on the line between good and evil that when he walks, one foot lands on the good side and the other foot lands on the side of evil. It is this conflict that generates and develops ... Read More

Before he directed some of my favorite films (Heat, The Insider, Manhunter), Michael Mann created two groundbreaking television series. Miami Vice got most of the viewers but its Crime Story that was truly ahead of its time. Crime Story dealt with Lt.

His main nemesis is aspiring mobster Luca, himself a fascinating portrait of evil who ... Read More

Absolutely the best crime show ever. I watched the series in highschool and regret not taping it at the time. I've also been searching for a copy of Runaway (the show's theme song - not Del's original version). Can anyone help?
Rating: - Awesome!
This series was one of the best ever on television. It made you want to be living in that era and be a cop going after the "bad guys". The inclusion of the blues songs throughout each episode helped with setting the correct moods of the moment. Torello (Dennis Farina) could be sitting at the bar with an early Stones or Muddy Waters song on the jukebox and you could read his mind! Michael Mann's best work, even better than Miami Vice.
