Hush Money — James Trivers

In the mid 1970's Manhattan night life was fueled by amyl nitrate, cocaine and celebrity sightings, there a conflicted and bipolar bicycle messenger forges his way in the world. He is living in the city of coincidences where somebodies and nobodies are forever mixing it up. When he happens to witness a Kennedy relative burying a call girl on the North Shore of Long Island and tells a detective about it. She, in turn, sets him up to receive a monthly stipend to keep his mouth shut. It is only when he saves the same Kennedy he is extorting from an overdose, does he realize the full ramifications of what he has done.
