Synopsis:

Rigby Reardon (played by Steve Martin) is a private investigator who’s experiencing a bit of a lull in business… in fact, it’s so slow that, when we first see Rigby, he’s re-reading old newspapers! There’s a knock on the door and when he opens it, Juliet Forrest (played by a stunningly beautiful Rachel Ward) literally faints into his life! When she comes to, after Rigby adjusts her breasts, she tells him that she thinks her father has been murdered, and wants him to look into it.

This is the start of a string of events that involves violent thugs, classy dames, Phillip Marlowe, cheese, Nazis, bullet-sucking, Rigby’s pajamas, and a whole lot of glorious black and white!
