Theyboth carry the paranoid, raw mood tags, and they sit in Drama / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Ley criminal, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What El reportero de la calle 42 is
Manhattan night. Distant sirens. A typewriter clacking. Journalist makes up a pimp for a story. The fiction too closely resembles an actual, dangerous man facing trial. Soon the writer is caught between the law and the streets. Schatzberg’s late-period crime films have a bitter aftertaste.
