Elmore Leonard's Criminal Records

An Unsurpassed Documentary by Mike Dibb and Rosanna Horsley

Originally aired in 1991 as part of the BBC’s Arena series, Elmore Leonard’s Criminal Records is a brilliantly conceived, richly layered portrait of Dutch in Detroit, Miami Beach, Hollywood, and home in Birmingham, Michigan. Directed and produced by Mike Dibb and Rosanna Horsley, the film is comprehensive, nuanced, and loaded with detail. It blends dramatic readings and interviews with cops, a judge, mermaids, me, Dutch’s wife Joan, a bail bondsman, a probation officer, and an Academy Award–winning Hollywood producer.

This is the most detailed, comprehensive documentary ever made about Elmore Leonard. Nothing could ever come close.
