Scott Marlowe. The ending is clumsy but this is an unusual and strong TRF which doesn’t feature Jim as much as usual and looks at the effects of a fake news story on a mafia family. We spend a lot of scenes with two characters who never interact with Jim as they try to plot a takeover (fueled by their belief in a story they read in a sleazy tabloid). It’s a clever idea for a story, and it really only falls down in the hurried climax. 8/10
