Ex-cop-turned-private eye Tony Rome (Frank Sinatra) needs work, so when his former partner shows up with a seemingly easy job tracking down a spoiled heiress (Sue Lyon), Tony jumps on the case. He finds the woman quickly, but when her father (Simon Oakland) discovers that her jewelry has gone missing, he hires Tony to find the thieves. Tony's investigation angers the wrong people, and when his partner ends up dead, he discovers there may be more to this case than some missing jewelry.

Shady personas abound, with supererogatory roles introduced nearly every 10 minutes, some of whom are so peculiar they appear humorous rather than severe. Go to Full Review

[UPDATED 2025 STREAMING REVIEW] Tony Rome features the sort of winding plotline and tough-guy characterizations familiar to fans of '40s noir, those down-and-dirty gems that found someone like Humphrey Bogart smacking around someone like Elisha Cook Jr. Go to Full Review
