Public Morals

Public Morals

Description: In 1960s New York laws prohibit all kinds of immoral behavior, yet corruption reigns, and gambling and prostitution are as old as the city itself. Indeed, even cops in the Public Morals Division often look the other way when investigating vice crimes, themselves tempted by similar sins. Not Officer Terry Muldoon, who is determined to protect his own Hell's Kitchen neighborhood that's being devoured by an Irish Mob war. As his wife, Christine, demands that they leave the city for a safer home to raise their kids, Muldoon and partner Charlie Bullman -- the muscle of the Public Morals Division -- fight back against the city's dark underbelly. Edward Burns ("Saving Private Ryan") writes, directs, executive produces and stars as Muldoon in the police drama.
