Short description

Joe Gavilan and his new partner K. C. Calden, are detectives on the beat in Tinseltown. Neither one of them really wants to be a cop, Gavilan moonlights as a real estate broker, and Calden is an aspiring actor moonlighting as a yoga instructor. When the two are assigned a big case they must work out whether they want to solve the case or follow their hearts.

What's left behind the scenes

  • The lead actors, Harrison Ford and Josh Hartnett, did not get along very well with each other either during filming or during the promotional campaign.
  • The character of Joe Gavilan is based on Robert Souza, a detective from the Los Angeles Police Department's homicide division, who worked as a real estate agent in the last 10 years of his service. An incident in which a handcuffed criminal pulled a police pistol from his belt and started shooting in a parking lot actually occurred during Souza's years of service.
  • Director and screenwriter Ron Shelton claimed, referring to the source material on which the script was based, that the situation in which Josh Hartnett's character leaves the script under Jerry Duran's door actually happened (albeit in a slightly different form). Once, a police officer and aspiring screenwriter went to an address to investigate a crime. Learning that a producer lived at that address, the officer immediately handed him the script he was working on.
