Do nice guys finish last? Just ask the nice guys in The Nice Guys. In 1970s Los Angeles, a mismatched pair of private eyes investigate a missing girl and the mysterious death of a star. Russell Crowe as Healy and Ryan Gosling as March.
The noir comedy earned 9 awards and 34 noms including the nom for Best Buddy Comedy from AARP’s Grown Up Movie Awards and it won best comedy at IGN’s Summer Movie Awards in 2016.
Talents Russell Crowe and Ryan Gosling both dropped out of high school to pursue their careers, and never had formal training in acting.
The movie was initially pitched as a TV series but was rewritten as a film after the plot seemed to be going nowhere.
Russell Crowe told Howard Stern that this was one of two films where he wishes there was a sequel as he liked playing his character. The other film was L.A. Confidential.
During March&aposs monologue about society taking a turn, a theatre in the background is playing "Bang Bang Kiss Kiss," a nod to Shane Black&aposs previous film Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (2005).
Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is about a thief who is mistaken for an actor and trained to be a private eye - with Robert Downey, Jr and Val Kilmer. One of Val’s best roles in recent years before his health complications.

He also wrote and directed The Predator (2018). Co-written by Fred Dekker and one of the original Predator scribes Jim Thomas.
