YesAsia Editorial Description

As in his 1977 film THE LATE SHOW, Robert Benton focuses on a private detective who's playing the back nine. With the passing of a quarter century, however, the director's tone had grown more somber. Paul Newman stars as the detective, Harry Ross, living in semiretirement in Santa Monica on the estate owned by his movie-star friends, Jack (Gene Hackman) and Catherine Ames (Susan Sarandon). When Harry delivers a package as a favor to Jack, he finds fellow private dick Lester Ivar (M. Emmett Walsh) dying from a bullet wound. Harry checks out Ivar's apartment, where he uncovers 20-year-old clippings relating to the disappearance of Catherine's first husband. As he tries to get to the bottom of the case, he enlists the help of a former lover, LAPD lt. Verna Hollander (Stockard Channing), and receives unsolicited assistance from feckless chauffeur Reuben Escobar (Giancarlo Esposito). Ex-cop and former studio security chief Raymond Hope (James Garner) also seems to know a thing or two about the case. Strong ensemble acting and Benton's characteristically nuanced and intelligent writing highlight this sinuous, richly textured murder mystery.

"...[A] mesmerizing mood piece..." - Peter, Travers (Rolling Stone Critic), Rolling Stone, 03/05/1998

"...[The filmmakers capture] haunting moods, not to mention the near unbearably beautiful shades of chartreuse green and almost poison red that infiltrate the evening sky in Southern California..." - Robin, Dougherty (Sight And Sound Critic), Sight and Sound, 12/01/1998

"...Vivid performances, especially the one by the now raspy-voiced Newman, eloquently deliberate..." - David, Everitt (Entertainment Weekly Critic), Entertainment Weekly, 10/02/1998

"...Mr. Newman still has the wisecracking vigor and panache that have always shaped his screen roles. He inhabits his shrewd, world-weary character with the ease that only lifelong movie stardom can bring..." - Janet, Maslin (New York Times Critic), New York Times, 03/06/1998

"...[A] tart-tongued murder mystery..." - Christine, Spines (Premiere Critic), Premiere, 03/01/1998

"...No one on screen has aged better than Newman....His eyes remain flinty and hypnotic and his ability to be a hero even in repose remains unimpaired..." - Kenneth, Turan (Los Angeles Times Critic), Los Angeles Times, 03/06/1998
