Onion Field DVD Summary
Joseph Wambaugh
's
The Onion Field
is based on an actual 1963 case.
L.
A.
plainclothesmen
Karl Hattinger
(
John Savage
) and
Ian Campbell
(
Ted Danson
) routinely investigate a pair of suspicious types,
Greg Powell
(
James Woods
) and
Jimmy Smith
(
Franklin Seales
).
Unexpectedly,
Powell
pulls a gun on the cops, then forces them into a deserted onion field, where he kills
Campbell
in cold blood.
Hattinger
manages to escape, and through his eyewitness account,
Powell
and
Smith
are arrested.
But that is not that.
Thanks to their knowledge and manipulation of the quicksilver legal system,
Powell
and
Smith
manage to evade prosecution for years.
Meanwhile,
Hattinger
goes through hell on earth, tortured with guilt over the fact that he lived while
Campbell
died so ignominiously.
