Roy Scheider plays a successful businessman whose life quickly falls apart when a compromising videotape of him and his mistress (Kelly Preston) becomes a tool for blackmail. Unable to go to the police without compromising the political career of his wife (Ann-Margret), he must take things into his own hands - and delve into a world of drugs, sleaze, pornography and snuff. Co-starring Prince protégé Vanity and John Glover (who was described as "the best, most reprehensible villain of the year" by Roger Ebert), and featuring a host of cameos from the stars of the 'Silver Age of Porn', 52 Pick-Up has been described by Leonard as his favourite big-screen adaptation of his works.
