Welcome to the complete L.A Noire walkthrough, where we’ll walk you through every head-scratching mystery, show you where to find all the clues, tell who’s lying and telling the truth and help you solve every grisly murder.
The last batch of cases sees you hit the Arson Desk. This is the third case: House Of Sticks
California Fire & Life

Clue- Cement delivery receipt
There are two desks pushed together in the building. The receipt is on one of them.
Clue- Demolition order; Clue- Company memo
Both of these items are on the lone desk in the building.
Clue- Broken wood
Exit the first building and fight the man outside. Beat him down and he’ll tell you where the demolished house is. Go over there and head around to the back of it on the left side. You’ll see a red flag in the ground. Investigate the wood here and piece it together. It says Keystone Films.
At this point you’ll be chased into a trench by a bulldozer. Adjust the camera so you can see the bulldozer behind you and keep running forward. Take shots at him whenever you get a chance to slow him down. You can also actually shoot the driver, but you have to be pretty lucky to catch him when the front end is
down. If you can’t kill the driver, just keep shooting to slow him down and run to the end. Once you’re out of the trench, use a phone to get the address for Keystone Film Studios.
Keystone Film Studios
Clue- Lumber delivery receipt
Jump the fence to your left and look on the first pile of lumber to your left. It’s hard to see, but there’s a receipt on the end of one of the planks.
Clue- Inferior quality lumber
On the opposite side of the receipt you should see another pile of lumber. Check the end for a small sign that says Inferior Quality.
Clue- Film canister
Hop back over the gate, then hop over the other gate, the one to your right. Keep going straight until you see an open door to your left with “Screening Room” above it. There’s a table to your right just after you enter. You’ll find the empty film canister on it.
Clue- Film
Open the vertical case in the middle of the room. You’ll need to adjust the focus of the film and the speed. It’s going in reverse right now. When you think you’ve got it, flip the direction switch to start the film over from the beginning and watch it.
Use the phone after you’re done to talk with Curtis Benson and Elsa Lichtmann.
Elysian Fields Site Two
Enter the house across the street with the flickering light. Go upstairs and you’ll be ambushed by three guys. You’ll need to fight one of them off, but eventually you’ll still be put down. After a couple of cutscenes, you manage to escape from the trunk of the car. Run down the alley. A red car stops on the street in front of you. Get in and drive away. They’ll be right behind you,so you’ll need to use the alleys and side streets to try and get away from them. Keep an eye out for narrow roads on your mini-map and use them. You’ll ditch them for good as you get close to Elsa’s apartment. Once there, the case is closed.
