Synopsis by Linda Rasmussen
Confidential a Canadian-made, low-budget, but stylish thriller directed by Bruce Pittman, is the familiar story of a detective forced to solve a crime. Reporter Hugh Jameson (Neil Munro) disappears while investigating a murder that occurred 30 years ago. A reporter who is interested in the case finds that he now must solve both murders, but much to his surprise, he himself becomes a target. Though it was produced on a shoe-string budget, this is nonetheless a stylish, interesting thriller with decent production values, and Director Pittman makes the most of his cast and his interesting, script.
