Shamus
SHAMUS a pool-shooting, card-playing, broad-chasing, private eye...cross him, and he'll blow your head off!
Directed by Buzz Kulik
Produced by Columbia Pictures
A brash, wisecracking 1970s private-eye thriller that balances crime-procedural plotting with comedic swagger and casual violence.
Millions in diamonds are stolen from a New York City safe, and later the burglar is killed. Shamus is paid $10,000 by the owner to find the diamonds or the killer.
