After his release from a British prison, a former professional thief (Terence Stamp) finds out his daughter has been murdered in Los Angeles and travels there to learn the truth about her death. With the investigative assistance of another ex-con he comes face to face with a high-rolling record producer, with whom his daughter was having an affair.
"The Limey is an intense thriller directed by Steven Soderbergh that combines sharp suspense and raw emotion. In the plot, Terence Stamp plays a hot-tempered Englishman who travels to Los Angeles to hunt down the person responsible for his daughter's death—and will stop at nothing to get answers. Peter Fonda plays the antagonist, a music producer shrouded in mystery and dangerous charm. With a fragmented narrative, stylish editing, and striking performances, Soderbergh delivers a film that is both a character study and a breathtaking thriller."
