Warren Beatty brings Chester Gould's legendary comic strip to life in this lavish, visually dazzling 1990 production — shot in just seven primary colours to replicate the look of the original newspaper strips. The square-jawed detective Dick Tracy (Beatty) goes up against a coalition of grotesque crime bosses led by Big Boy Caprice (Al Pacino, in a scene-stealing performance) while the enigmatic Breathless Mahoney (Madonna) tries to come between him and his steady girl. An Academy Award winner for Best Makeup, Original Score, and Original Song.
