Silver City

Set against the backdrop of a mythic "New West," "Silver City" follows grammatically-challenged, "user-friendly" candidate Dicky Pilager (Cooper), scapegrace scion of Colorado's venerable Senator Jud Pilager (Murphy), during his gubernatorial campaign. When Pilager finds that he's reeled in a corpse during the taping of an environmental political ad, his ferocious campaign manager, Chuck Raven (Dreyfuss), hires former idealistic journalist turned rumpled private detective Danny O'Brien (Huston) to investigate potential links between the corpse and the Pilager family's enemies.
