The Big Sleep

General Sternwood has four million dollars, and two young daughters, both pretty and bath wild. He's an old, sick man, close to death, but he doesn't like being blackmailed. So he asks private detective Philip Marlowe to get the blackmailer off his back. Marlowe knows the dark aide of lite in Los Angeles well, and nothing much surprises him. But the Sternwood girls are a lot wilder than their old father realizes.
They like men, drink, drugs - and it's not just a question of blackmail.
