Several stories interweave during two days in Los Angeles involving a collection of inter-related characters, a police detective with a drugged out mother and a thieving younger brother, two car thieves who are constantly theorizing on society and race, the white district attorney and his irritated and pampered wife, a racist white veteran cop (caring for a sick father at home) who disgusts his more idealistic younger partner, a successful Hollywood director and his wife who must deal with the racist cop, a Persian-immigrant father who buys a gun to protect his shop, a Hispanic locksmith and his young daughter who is afraid of bullets, and more.

Don't be put off by Sandra Bullock

I yelled at the TV when the credits came up "not Sandra Bullock!" but this movie really surprised me. In fact, she really surprised me. Great cast, slightly political but not too obvious or one-sided, moving but not soppy. I liked it.
