The discovery of the nude body of a young woman on the beach gets dismissed as "just another suicide", though the story behind it is a sleazy one of pornography and leads to one satisfying conclusion and then another one that's merely tacked on. Burt Reynolds and Paul Winfield play two detectives who involve themselves in getting to the bottom of what actually happened to this girl, whose distraught parents are believably played by Eileen Brennan and Ben Johnson. Johnson won't accept suicide as an answer and discovers that his daughter was a nude dancer in a club and was in a pornographic film as well. Reynolds is living with Catherine Deneuve, a call girl who makes a lot of money with phone sex. There's a divergence as the plot tries to encompass Johnson's side of the story as well as Reynolds and Deneuve. The whole thing is bathed in a sleazy transparent red light and is only half bad, because Johnson's and Brennan's side of the story is nearly good enough to support Reynolds and Deneuve.
