✦ Synopsis
Rivages/Noir 919
Joseph, jeune cordon-bleu hawaïen, gère une entreprise de cantine pour les tournages venus profiter de l'exotisme de son île. Une ambiance familiale et détendue sur fond de paradis tropical. Dans le monde impitoyable du show-biz américain, cela ne pouvait pas durer. Pas avec Big Jack Lucey, le roi du secteur sur la Côte ouest, qui doit à ses méthodes expéditives d'être assis sur un paquet de dollars et se trimballe une redoutable réputation. Face au débarquement en force de ce magnat de la malbouffe, les Hawaïens organisent une riposte inoubliable... "Intrigue échevelée, dialogues magnifiques, personnages allumés : l'auteur du déjà remarquable À bras raccourci confirme ici son immense talent." (Le Temps)
