NEVADA THEATRE 3/16 - TO LIVE AND DIE IN L.A.: Legendary filmmaker WIlliam Friedkin takes center stage in our newest Best Of retrospective, with four of his greatest works! One of Friedkin’s favorites of his own works, TO LIVE AND DIE IN L.A. follows reckless Secret Service agent Richard Chance (William Petersen). When his longtime partner on the force is killed, Chance vows revenge, setting out to nab dangerous counterfeit artist Eric Masters (Willem Dafoe). Along with his new, straitlaced partner John Vukovich (John Pankow), Chance sets up a scheme to entrap Masters, resulting in the accidental death of an undercover officer. As Chance's desire for justice becomes an obsession, Vukovich questions the lawless methods he employs.
