Mob-connected loan shark Chili Palmer is sick
of the Miami grind – plus his “friends” have a bad habit of dying there. So
when he chases a deadbeat client out to Hollywood, Chili figures he might like
to stay. This town, with its dream-makers, glitter, hucksters, and liars – plus
gorgeous, partially clad would-be starlets everywhere you look – seems ideal
for an enterprising criminal with a taste for the cinematic. Besides, Chili’s
got an idea for a killer movie, though it could very possibly kill him to get
it made.
