Details

• Release Year: 1990
• Genre: Crime, Drama, Mystery
• Plot: Jack Nicholson returns as private eye Jake Gittes in this atmospheric 'Chinatown' follow-up that's hit upon ' the elusive sequel formula for somehow enhancing a great original' (Mike Clark, 'USA Today').; ; Much has changed since we last saw Jake. The war has come and gone; 1948 Los Angeles teems with optimism and fast bucks. But there's one thing Jake knows hasn't changed: 'Nine times out of ten, if you follow the money you will get to the truth.' And that's the trail he follows when a routine case of marital hanky panky explodes into a murder that's tied to a grab for oil - and to Jake's own past.
