Slick & sleazy - Dennis Farina ( of "Get Shorty" fame) plays Buddy Faro, the legendary West Coast private eye. After 20 years on the ropes, Buddy gets back in the ring. So he brushes off the old dinner jackets, stirs up the martinis and gives today's kids a few lessons in what cool really means. This is a rather dapper mixture of drama and comedy, penned by no one less than "Twin Peaks" co-creator Mark Frost. Picture and sound are more than happy to rummage around in the old attic chest, tossing up a little Retro Look here, a languishing 70ies medley there. "Buddy Faro" is a sure-fire bet, helping the audience get down, get groovy and shake their booties.
