SYNOPSIS: James Garner and John Lithgow play two street-hardened detectives investigating a sleazy murder in Hollywood. In classic noir style Garner provides the world weary voiceover to this Neo Noir set in Hollywood and Los Angeles. A big shot film producer is shot and his body dumped in a seedy part of town. Garner and Lithgow catch the case and navigate the alternate universe of life in Hollywood: directors, actors, kiddie porn, drugs, etc. They slowly pick up clues that will lead them to the killer. Meanwhile, Lithgow is haunted by a previous case in which he found a young boy castrated by his own father. Quadruple threat Stuart Margolin (actor, director, producer, music) plays the dead man's nephew. Kidder shows up as a spunky actress who falls in bed with Garner. John Marley is great as their chief who's constantly screaming. And last but not least, genre fave Paul Koslo plays a porn filmmaker who sports Bee Gees facial hair and likes to roller skate! A recommended made-for-cable-TV drama with a pretty high dose of sleaze and sordid situations. Based on a book by former detective Joseph Wambaugh (The Onion Field, The Choirboys, Black Marble, etc).
