LONELY HEARTS is a vivid retelling of the real life murder spree of Martha Beck and Raymond Fernandez, and its connection to the tragic story of Detective Elmer C. Robinson, who helped capture the killers, but lost his wife in the process. Robinson was a Nassau County Detective, whose work was everything to him, alienating his family during the 1940’s and 50’s. Robinson worked very long hours on this infamous case when his wife began a downward spiral which ultimately would take her life.

John Travolta (Be Cool, Ladder 49) plays Elmer Robinson, the dedicated and brooding detective; James Gandolfini (All the Kings Men, The Sopranos) is his partner who steers him through emotionally difficult times, and Jared Leto (Chapter 27, Lord of War) and Salma Hayek (Ask the Dust, After the Sunset) play the cold blooded couple who swindle and murder women they found in “Lonely Hearts” personal ads. LONELY HEARTS – in theaters April 13th!
