Roy Milano, a self-described movie detective who is devoted to
finding, hoarding, and reciting arcane information about films,
once again stumbles into a murder case--this one centering on a
copy of Jerry Lewis's infamous uncompleted film. The Day the Clown
Cried, shot in Sweden in 1972. Though rough cuts were apparently
screened for the filmmaker's colleagues and Hollywood insiders, the
movie was quickly suppressed and never exhibited to the general
public or to any critic or film historian. And now certain cinema
buffs are ready to kill to possess that elusive footage. It's up to
Roy to save the day, and the film, before everything unspools.
Roy Milano is no Sam Spade. But when this divorced movie geek
stumbles onto the trail of Orson Welles' long-lost masterpiece, The
Magnificent Ambersons, he can't help but take the case. The usual
suspects prove to be anything but--a bodybuilding film fanatic
obsessed with bizarre rumors about an A-list actress; a rotund
reporter who holds Hollywood in thrall via Internet dispatches from
his parents' basement; and a starstruck street punk with a thousand
voices. And then there's the transatlantic love triangle that finds
Roy caught between his very own Gal Friday and a sultry Spanish
siren with a stunning secret. But when the bodies start falling,
Roy must cut to the chase in his quest to save the Holy Grail of
cinema before everything fades to black.
