John Kelso a magazine reporter finds himself in Savannah amid the beautiful architecture and odd doings to write a feature on one of William's famous Christmas parties. He is intrigued by Williams from the start, but his curiosity is piqued when he meets Jim's violent, young and sexy lover, Billy. Later that night, Billy is dead, and Kelso stays on to cover the murder trial. Along the way he encou... nters the irrepressible Lady Chablis, a drag queen commedienne, Sonny Seiler, lawyer to Williams, whose famous dog UGA is the official mascot of the Georgia Bulldogs, an odd man who keeps flies attached to mini leashes on his lapels and threatens daily to poison the water supply, the Married Ladies Card Club, and Minerva, a spiritualist. Between being Jim's buddy, cuddling up to a torch singer, meeting every eccentric in Savannah, participating in midnight graveyard rituals and helping solve the mysteries surrounding Billy's murder, Kelso has his hands full.

Millionaire Murder Mystery
I found this an average film for Clint Eastwood as the Director with too much emphasis on the cross dressing character Lady Chablis played by the real Lady Chablis.
Clint's little girl Alison was very good as the eye candy, Mandy Nicholls and of course Kevin Spacey and John Cusack were their usual competant selves as the Millionaire under suspicion of Murder and his journalist Nemesis respectively.
Well shot, well acted, plenty of atmosphere but just lacking that certain something that makes a good film - great.
Eastwood, a potent star and the most significant actor-director of the post-war period, brought an even greater depth to his work in the 1990s. He outgrew the violence, homophobia and superficial influences of his erstwhile mentors Siegel and Leone to give us this, his most ambitious modern-day movie to date. It is a leisurely and densely atmospheric version of John Berendt's best-seller set in Savannah, Georgia. A young journalist (Cusack) is drawn into an investigation when a local millionaire (Spacey), is murdered by his boyfriend (Law). The exposure of hot-house happenings, lies and deceit makes for mesmerizing drama.
