Welcome to Sin City. This town beckons to the tough, the corrupt, the broken hearted. Some call it dark. Hard-boiled. Then there are those who call it borne. Crooked cops. Sexy dames. Desperate vigilantes. Some are seeking revenge. Others lust after redemption. And then there are those hoping for a little of both. A universe of unlikely and reluctant heroes still trying to do the right thing in a city that refuses to care. Their stories shocking, suspense and searing come to the fore in a new motion picture from co-directors Frank Miller and Robert Rodriguez, and special guest director Quentin Tarantino. With verve and invention, Miller and Rodriguez plucked the stories of Sin City right off the comic book page. Then, using cutting-edge digital filmmaking, they pasted these ultimate urban tales of louts, lugs, heroes and hussies to the screen without losing any of the comic's silhouetted look and staccato rhythms. Sin City is brought to life through light and shadow. Through clipped dialogue, stylized performances and visual invention. Sin City is directed by Frank Miller and Robert Rodriguez based on Miller's graphic novel of the same name: Sin City, The film stars Jessica Alba, Rosario Dawson, Elijah Wood, Brace Willis, Benicio Del Toro, Michael Clarke Duncan, Carla Gugino, Josh Hartnett, Michael Liadsen, Jaime King, Brittany Murphy, Olive Owen, Mickey Rourke, Nick Stahl, Marley Shelton, Powers Booth and Rutger Hauer.
