Chili Palmer is a Miami mobster who gets sent by his boss, the psychopathic "Bones" Barboni, to collect a bad debt from Harry Zimm, a Hollywood producer who specializes in cheesy horror films.

After pitching his own life story as a movie idea, Chili learns that being a mobster and being a Hollywood producer really aren't all that different.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A sharp-witted con artist discovers that the rules of the mob game aren't so different from Hollywood's, and that charm and hustle can take you further than force. It's a clever, energetic riff on reinvention and the blurred lines between two worlds built on ego and performance.
