With his career in the Liverpool clubs going nowhere, failed comic Eddie Ginley (Albert Finney) put his fixation with Yank private eye movies to work and advertised his services as a detective. His first case quickly finds him in over his head with international intrigue and murderous heroin smugglers in this trenchant trench coat tickler. Stephen Frears' directorial debut co-stars Billie Whitelaw, Frank Finlay, Janice Rule, Carolyn Seymour; score by Andrew Lloyd Webber. 86 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: English mono.
