A collection of interweaving stories all based in the corrupt crime infested hell-hole that is Basin City. Heavily influenced by film-noir the main storylines concern a hulking brute called Marv (Mickey Rourke) who is seeking the murderer of a beautiful woman who was killed while asleep in bed with him; an ex-photographer called Dwight (Clive Owen) who accidentally kills a hero cop and has to cover it up; and a soon-to-be-retiring policeman called Hartigan (Bruce Willis) who is incarcerated for a crime he didn't commit. All based on the brilliant graphic novels "Sin City" "The Big Fat Kill" and "That Yellow Bastard" written and illustrated by Frank Miller.
