The Black Dahlia

Butch (Josh Hartnett) and Lee (Aaron Eckhart) are both leaders in the boxing world. Lee is called "Mr. Fire" and Butch is called "Mr. Ice." Lee is in the police enforcement team, while Butch is more down and out. In a boxing match held at the police station, Butch deliberately lost to Li, thereby joining the police station and becoming Li's partner. The two became friends who talked about everything. The two were ordered to investigate a serial murder committed by a guy named Nash. During an ambush, Li shot and killed a surveillance suspect to save Butch, but failed to catch Nash. The two men later discovered the body of Short, known as the "Black Dahlia," near the scene. Short's death was horrific. Li soon gave up investigating the Nash case and concentrated on pursuing the Short case alone. The early release of Bobby, the bank robber who was captured by Li, also made Li feel overwhelmed. In order to help his partner, Butch began to investigate himself. However, as the investigation deepened and the truth gradually emerged, he discovered the unknown secret behind Li.
