Comments |
Researching 'The Interview', I thought it relevant to return to this prolific ABC 2 part series. Blue Murder was the fore-runner for the likes of televison serials such as Janus, Phoenix and, I believe, feature film The Interview. Currently, it still hasn't been aired in NSW and is unlikely to. |
Synopsis |
Dramatised documentary examining the Sydney crime world of 1980's; Focusing specifically on the dealings of Roger Rogerson, a corrupt policeman that runs an intricate circle of criminals and police who exploit a world of crime, corruption, drugs and excessive violence. |
