The Informers

The Informers (2008) is a crime drama directed by Gregor Jordan that you can watch online on iFILM. Seven interlocking stories. One week in Los Angeles, 1983. The tagline said it plainly: "Greed is good. Sex is easy. Youth is forever."

A studio executive, his estranged wife, a fading rock star, bored rich kids, a hotel doorman with a sinister side hustle — they drift through the same sun-bleached city without really seeing each other. The parties are dull. The drugs are plentiful. Nobody seems to want much beyond the next hour. And underneath all of it, quietly, an epidemic is already spreading.

Based on Bret Easton Ellis's novel — the same author behind American Psycho — the film assembles Billy Bob Thornton, Kim Basinger, Winona Ryder, Mickey Rourke, and an early Amber Heard. It is not a thriller in the conventional sense; it is a slow, cold autopsy of a decade that confused numbness for freedom. Stream The Informers (2008) online on iFILM.
