Two actors best known for their work in the late 1960's, Terence Stamp and
Peter Fonda, star in The Limey, a drama in which a recently released felon
contemplates the gulf between aging criminals like himself and their modern
counterparts. Wilson (Terence Stamp) is a British career criminal who has
been released after nine years in prison. He has learned that his daughter
Jenny died under suspicious circumstances in Los Angeles, so he travels to
America for the first time to find out what happened and who's responsible.
With the help of an ex-con named Ed (Luis Guzman), Wilson discovers
Jenny was romantically involved with Valentine (Peter Fonda), a
middle-aged record producer with a shady past and a fondness for young
women. In hopes of getting the truth -- and getting to Valentine -- Wilson
finds himself doing battle with some of the worst criminals to crawl from the
underbelly of Los Angeles; along the way, he also meets Elaine (Lesley Ann
Warren), an older actress who knew Jenny and reminds Wilson of how little
he really did for his daughter while she was alive. Steven Soderbergh's first
film after his commercial comeback with Out Of Sight, The Limey features,
along with Stamp and Fonda, two other notable 60's actors in supporting
roles, Barry Newman and Joe Dallesandro.
