Starring Richard Gere, Andy Garcia and Laurie Metcalfe Directed by Mike Figgis Andy Garcia stars as Sgt. Avila, a cop who just joined the Internal Affairs division of the L.A.P.D. An investigation into police corruption has led Avila and his partner, Sgt. Wallace (Metcalf), to Officer Dennis Peck (Gere). Avila suspects something about Peck from the beginning; his influence and dominance over others seems to extend further than the reach of his badge. When officers who wish to testify against Peck start dying, the depth of his corruption becomes increasingly clear. When the investigation threatens Peck’s territory, he begins to stalk Avila and turns him against his wife.
