Director: Robert Benton
Genres: Mystery
Rating:

Even though he barely makes enough money to cover his expenses and finds divorce cases (his bread and butter) unsavory, aging detective Ira Wells (Art_Carney) is determined to stay active and to retain some amount of self-respect. When his partner Harry Regan (Howard_Duff) is killed while on assignment, Ira agrees to take on his current case, although he can't see how it has anything to do with his friend's murder, which he is anxious to solve. In order to survive, by solving the case of his client's missing cat, and solving the murder of his friend, Ira winds up accepting a lot of help from his client Margo (Lily_Tomlin). By the end of the film, it looks like an offbeat romance, or perhaps a new business partnership, is blooming. Clarke Fountain, Rovi
