About Sin City
"There is no justice without sin."
Welcome to Sin City. This town beckons to the tough, the corrupt, the brokenhearted. Some call it dark… Hard-boiled. Then there are those who call it home — Crooked cops, sexy dames, desperate vigilantes. Some are seeking revenge, others lust after redemption, and then there are those hoping for a little of both. A universe of unlikely and reluctant heroes still trying to do the right thing in a city that refuses to care.
Directed by Robert Rodriguez, Frank Miller

Movie trivia
-
1
The film's color processing rendered most of the movie in black and white while retaining or adding color for selected objects, a technique that drew particular recognition.
-
2
Several scenes were shot before any actor had signed on, so stand-ins were used and the actual actors were digitally added into the film during post-production.
-
3
Principal photography was shot with Sony CineAlta F950 cameras on HD-CAM SR format.
-
4
Rodriguez strove to remain faithful to the source, calling the film less of an adaptation than a translation; consequently there is no screenwriting credit and the onscreen credit reads Based on the graphic novels by Frank Miller.
-
5
Three directors received credit — Frank Miller, Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino — with Tarantino directing the drive-to-the-pits scene and being paid one dollar.
