About

Synopsis

Sunset (1988) is Blake Edwards' detective caper, and you can watch it online on iFILM. In 1929 Hollywood, aging lawman Wyatt Earp is hired to advise on a western about his own life.

James Garner plays Earp, while Bruce Willis, early in his leading-man career, takes on silent cowboy star Tom Mix. When a shocking murder rocks the town, the real gunfighter and the screen one team up to crack it, with Malcolm McDowell as a slippery studio boss. Edwards, the man behind The Pink Panther, laces the mystery with sly jabs at a dream factory where fact and movie fiction have long swapped places. The plot bends history freely and admits as much up front. It's a treat for anyone who loves vintage Hollywood and the Garner-Willis pairing. Stream Sunset online on iFILM.
