A satire of trailers and a story of a boys life.

Marty Mackenzie is an unsuccessful stage actor who takes an interest in private investigating. He takes a job working with Jack Potter, a crusty private eye. They both take a case in Beaver Ridge, a seedy small town where a murder is being planned against a rich gravel pit owner. Marty realizes that private investigating is not as it seemed to be.

合衆国憲法で定められた“二重処罰の禁止”を知った服役中の女性が、自分を罠に陥れた夫に復讐する。“同じ人間を2度殺す事はできない”という法律の落とし穴“ダブル・ジョパディー”をうまく利用した脚本が面白い。
