And why isn't this mentioned in the "goof" section?
In a movie, supposedly taking place in New York, has EVERY SINGLE rank of the NYPD, from patrolman, to detective, even up to the commissioner, talking with some hokey Midwestern accent? I'm guessing, but I believe this was shot in NYC itself- you mean the casting director couldn't have found a few New York sounding guys to play the rolls of policeman (or better yet, some ACTUAL members of the NYPD from the thirties)? I left this identical criticism for "The Penguin Pool Murder Mystery" and sure enough, I was the ONLY one who pointed this out.
Shame on him, and shame on all you reviewers for missing this obvious mistake.
Otherwise, a pretty good movie, but what an unnecessary and easily fixed goof this was.
