DESCRIPTION
An offbeat personality a tough-as-nails approach and a track record as one of the country's leading investigators--these are just a few of the traits exhibited by television's next great detective Deputy Chief Brenda Leigh Johnson played by three-time Golden Globe Award nominee Kyra Sedgwick in "The Closer." In her first lead role in a dramatic series Sedgwick plays a tough CIA-trained detective with Southern charm who has been brought from Atlanta to Los Angeles to head up the Priority Murder Squad a special unit of the LAPD that handles sensitive high-profile murder cases. "The Closer" is executive produced by the team behind "Nip/Tuck."Running Time: 602 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS UPC: 012569806405 Manufacturer No: 80640
Deputy Police Chief Brenda Johnson Kyra Sedgwick, Personal Velocity isn't about making friends, she's about getting results. Days after her transfer from Atlanta, the LAPD's Priority Homicide Division decides they can't work with the blunt-talking Southern belle. Fortunately, she has former CIA colleague, Assistant Police Chief Will Pope J.K. Simmons, Spider-Man, on her side. As he explains to Captain Taylor Robert Gossett, who she has just replaced, "She is not miss congeniality...but she's a closer." Set to the sound of urban blues, TNT's The Closer is Columbo by way of Prime Suspect. In other words, Johnson may be as messy as Oscar Madison, but she's as sharp as Sherlock Holmes. Throughout the first season, she'll solve 13 murders, including those of a reclusive mathematician, a Russian prostitute, and a British butler. She won't get much support from her colleagues, except for Sergeant David Gabriel Corey Reynolds, Broadway’s Hairspray--to the consternation of his co-workers, like Detective Lieutenants Provenza G.W. Bailey, M*A*S*H and Flynn Tony Denison, Melrose Place. Johnson also has a friend in FBI Special Agent Fritz Howard Jon Tenney, You Can Count on Me. With his help, she'll eventually settle into her new environment, especially when she lands a house and a cat on the same day conveniently left behind by a victim. Just as it takes awhile for the chief to grow on her squad--and to get used to driving in LA--Sedgwick's Golden Globe-nominated performance follows a similar trajectory. Fortunately, "Scarlett O'Hara," as the droll Provenza dubs her, becomes more fully-rounded as the season progresses, aided by a superb SAG Award-nominated ensemble cast. Consulting producer on The Closer is former LA District Attorney Gil Garcetti of O.J. infamy. --Kathleen C. Fennessy
