The Two Jakes 4K 1990

Los Angeles, 1948. Jake is hired by his namesake land dealer Jake Berman. Berman is convinced that his wife is cheating on him and asks Gittes to dig up every possible detail. Gittes, in turn, not only finds out all the details, but also offers Berman to "catch" his wife red-handed, right during an intimate rendezvous. The two Jakes set up an ambush for the unfaithful spouse. At the most crucial moment Berman, instead of making his wife a scene of jealousy, kills her lover. And all this could have been written off as a state of passion, if the murdered man had not turned out to be Berman's business partner. After the death of his business partner, Jake Berman is left with all the money. Now Gittes has to find out whether what happened was an accident or a cold-blooded planned murder....
