It's based on a novel based on a real incident circa 1947 - Elizabeth Short a small time actor was gruesomely murdered - the killer has never been caught. The press somehow called it the 'Black Dahlia' case based on a film called called Blue Dahlia or something.

The film is based on the murder but takes off into a convoluted plot around it and its no surprise that the film didn't do well and de Palma suffered a bit. But it got nominated for some award and that's why I saw it. Wish I hadn't.
