Lt. Dave Robicheaux, a detective in New Iberia, Louisiana, is trying to link the murder of a local hooker to New Orleans mobster Julie (Baby Feet) Balboni, who is co-producer of a Civil War film. At the same time, after Elrod Sykes, the star of the film, reports finding another corpse in the Atchafalaya Swamp near the movie set, Robicheaux starts another investigation, believing the corpse to be the remains of a black man who he saw being murdered 35 years before.

Found this purely by accident on TubiTV and decided to give it a watch, based on it having Tommy Lee Jones and John Goodman. It was a good movie, but as another review has mentioned, it was quite disjointed. Even the conclusion didn't seem to wrap up the scores of loose ends that were flopping around out there. I'm still not sure what happened, and the final scene (just before the credits roll) made absolutely no sense to me. Definitely some good acting in here and it was very captivating probably through the first 2/3 of the film but got pretty muddled after that. Worth watching just to see Tommy Lee Jones in a strong lead role but a bit disappointing as a story.

Tommy Lee Jones performance is superb and the Southern US atmosphere is really genuine but the story is just made overcomplicated and disappointing.

A woman is found murdered in the swamp somewhere in the south. A brutal murder, quite possibly a serial killer. A policeman is investigating, and while he does that, another body is found, but this one nothing but bones. This guy (a black guy) was killed 40 years ago, and the policeman suddenly rem More
