About The Landline Detective
A man discovers a photo from 1982 that confirms his brother-in-law was not where he said he was when his wife (the man's sister-in-law) was murdered, prompting the man to call people in an attempt to solve a 35-year-old murder mystery.
Directed by Eric Nemoto, The Landline Detective leans on a strong ensemble — Dann Seki, Jim Aina, Kristen Nemoto — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about crime titles of 2020.
