What happens

Peeper is a 1975 American mystery comedy film directed by Peter Hyams, starring Michael Caine as Leslie C. Tucker, a bungling private investigator. A send-up of 1940s films noirs, Peeper was a box-office failure that jeopardized Hyams's career and almost prevented him from obtaining funding to produce Capricorn One. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
