In the Electric Mist

Louisiana bayou. Fog and cicadas. A drowned woman. Detective Dave Robicheaux hunts a mobster tied to a Civil War film shoot while dredging up the decades-old mystery of a murdered black man. The movie's star complicates matters. Tavernier’s adaptation of James Lee Burke is a glum exercise in star-wattage.
