Notable Movie: “Spenser Confidential,” March 6
Details: In this comedy thriller set in Boston, ex-cop Spenser gets out of jail for a crime he says he didn’t commit. He wants to leave Boston behind, but his old mentor convinces him to stay and help a new mentee. Then, two of the ex-cop’s former colleagues wind up dead, and Spenser decides to investigate.
The story is loosely based on author Robert B. Parker’s character Spenser from the “Spenser” series, and the plot comes from the novel “Wonderland,” which is part of the series but was written by author Ace Atkins after Parker’s death.
The main cast includes Alan Arkin, Winston Duke, Iliza Shlesinger and Mark Wahlberg.
“Spenser Confidential” runs 1 hour, 51 minutes.
