Hickey & Boggs

“They're not cool, slick heroes. They're worn, tough men, and that's why they're so dangerous.”

Al Hickey (Bill Cosby) and Frank Boggs (Robert Culp) are worn-out private investigators who just want a simple job that pays. They take one to find a missing woman, and the search puts them in the middle of murder and a lot of lying. Culp directs from a Walter Hill script, and the two partners, shabby and tired and long past trusting anyone else, lean on each other more with every door that opens.
