Arena — James Ellroy's Feast of Death (S1 E533)

The art strand Arena returns with a new seven-part series. Best known for such novels as LA Confidential, The Black Dahlia, and the autobiographical work My Dark Places, crime writer James Ellroy has recently moved beyond his genre to create a fictional version of America's last 50 years. The Cold Six Thousand, the newly-published second volume in his "underworld America" trilogy, looks at the years between the assassination of President Kennedy and that of his brother Robert Kennedy. Following Ellroy to Las Vegas and Dallas - the twin locations of the trilogy - and observing him at home in Kansas and with members of the LAPD, this documentary gives viewers the chance to see the world through Ellroy's eyes.
