Like the fact that someone put this together, but I agree with previous comments, that Bosch should be older, grumpier, and more rumpled. This guy is to young to be Bosch.

Is this from a real movie being made or what?

[TerrillLeeLankford]

This is Bosch in 1993. Tim Abell, the actor playing Bosch, is either exactly the same age as Bosch in 1993, or a year older than Bosch. I forget which at this time. (It's been a few years since we made this.)

isn't Edgar an african american?

[TerrillLeeLankford]

Yes. So is the actor portraying him. Gar Anthony Hayward. Novelist. Actor. African American.

that isn't the only thing. Harry Bosch has a mustache. But that's ok. cuz i kinda liked the guy in this clip.

[TerrillLeeLankford]

Every now and then, Harry shaves to let his lip breathe.

The Bosch series are one of the best crime books ever!! I read this book 3 weeks ago,i just finished Black Echo yesterday and thought it was brilliant, especially the twists (not givin it away tho). Micheal Connolly is very precise with everthing down to the smallest detail

Hmmm. ... the Harry Bosch I imagined looks much more like Harry Bosch than this one ;-)

I like his caracter a lot! Also his name; he his named after art painter Hyronimus Bosch and I live in the city where he was born. In one of Connelly's book he writes about Bosch wondering what the city looks like where the painter was born. Well, google on 's-Hertogenbosch and you will know!

BTW: what a beautiful apartment! I wish I could live there!

Terry do you think that I can get all the videos from the books and how, I willing to pay for it. Thanks.

@TerrillLeeLankford I picture 2000s-era Bosch as being played by Liam Neeson, as in "Taken".

I wish success for Michael Connelly, but I hope they never make a Harry Bosch film, because they'll never get the character right. They'll likely get Leonardo DiCaprio to play Harry Bosch, when in my mind, he's Dan Hedaya.

Personally, I always see a younger Tom Berenger as Harry Bosch when I read the books.

Nice.....I have just started reading the book! I did not expect this video.

[JakT714]

they should turn this into a full-lengh movie

[FlashyVic]

Just finished this book (again). And looked up the Hightower on google streetview because i'm a nosey bugger. Its nice to see the apartment as it actually is, though i pictured a lot more upmarket in my head to be honest. I'm re-reading Lost Light now. I'm on a bit of a Bosch kick at the minute. I picture Bosch as a sort of chubbier & slightly younger Harry Dean Stanton.

Hey, the tower was in the "Long Goodbye" with Elliot Gould

I rented that apartment from 1964-69. Quite a time up there, then...
