Story Synopsis

The suspenseful Devil In A Blue Dress is based on Walter Mosley’s book and stars Denzel Washington as Los Angeles private eye East Rawlins, a distinguished WWII veteran who gets fired from his aircraft-industry job due to a dispute. Needing work, he accepts a C-note from the shady DeWitt Albright (Sizemore) to find Daphne Monet (Beals) which takes him to the minority neighborhoods of 1948 Los Angeles. Daphne is a mysterious lady involved with a wealthy mayoral candidate and Easy soon finds himself facing blackmail, hipocracy and cutthroat big city politics.
