ABOUT THE FILM:

John Travolta plays Chili Palmer, a Miami loanshark who’s sent to Los Angeles to collect on a gambling debt from film producer Harry Zimm. Chili is an avid movie fan and instead of breaking Harry’s legs, he pitches him an idea that could be the next break of Harry’s career.

Hailed by many critics as one of the best films of 1995, this finely tuned black comedy sparked a renewed interest in movies based on books by prolific crime novelist Elmore Leonard, whose trademark combination of tight plotting and sharp humor is perfectly captured here.

A journey to Los Angeles curtailed by the passionate movie pitch. What could be more Hollywood?
