Mitternacht im Garten von Gut und Böse (1997)
Jim Williams hat es, aus bescheidenen Verhältnissen stammend, zu einem Vermögen gebracht. Mittlerweile kommt die High Society von Savannah zu seinen Partys. Für eine Weihnachtsfeier lässt er eigens den New Yorker Reporter John Kelso einfliegen. Der beobachtet einen Streit zwischen Jim und dem Gigolo Billy, der wenige Stunden später erschossen wird.
