Who Framed Roger Rabbit
Roger Rabbit is a toon, an animated star at Maroon Cartoon Studio. After an opening cartoon, Somethin’s Cookin’, we discover that Roger is suspected of the murder of Marvin Acme, who owned Toontown and the company that makes all cartoon props, and who had been flirting with Roger’s wife, Jessica. Roger asks Down-on-his-luck private detective Eddie Valiant to find the real culprit. He reluctantly agrees and soon discovers more to the mysterious Judge Doom than meets the eye. Chased by Doom’s weasel henchmen, Eddie visits Toontown, with its many well-known toon inhabitants, before discovering the identity of the murderer. Premiered at Radio City Music Hall on June 21, 1988; general release on June 22, 1988.
