Heâ s an investigative reporter whose methods are a little unorthodox. Currently heâ s living on the beach with the strung-out trying to find to the source of the drugs they live for.
Fletch
Heâ s taking more than a little flack from his editor. She doesnâ t appreciate his style. Or the expense account items heâ s racking up. Or his definition of the word deadline. Or the divorce lawyers who keep showing up at the office.
Fletch
So when multimillionaire Alan Stanwyk offers Fletch the job of a lifetime, which could be worth a fortune, heâ s intrigued and decides to do a little investigation. What he discovers is that the proposition is anything but what it seems.
