About Murder in Music City
A brash songwriter who buys a detective agency as a tax shelter finds himself and his photographer's model bride involved in a puzzling murder, when a dead body turns up in their honeymoon suite, and on a trail that leads them to Nashville.
Directed by Leo Penn, Murder in Music City leans on a strong ensemble — Sonny Bono, Lee Purcell, Lucille Benson — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1979.
