SYNOPSIS

     It’s late in the 1940's, and New York City is full of shady characters - none shadier than Spade Slade, the dubious black private dick.

     Our story begins when the Blonde and beautiful Vivian Conners Jr. visits his office and asks him to find her mysteriously disappeared husband, the wealthy Basil Conners Jr.  At the same time, after completing a lurid sex act in a seedy hotel with Asian seductress Mai Fun, her lover Basil Conners Jr. is pleading with her to abscond with him.

     Then Slade’s secretary is murdered, bitten by an exotic snake.  Slade’s quest now takes him to a murky smoke filled shop in Chinatown, and then to the Rich Millionaire’s Club where he watches leggy chorines and suavely pumps the vivacious cigarette girl Rhonda Fonda for information.

     After trading punches, flirtations, and threats with a variety of hotel clerks, Slade finally discovers Basil’s vermin infested room and the clue to his secret plan. Compromising photos of Basil and Mai Fun in the act, a shipboard slugfest and a blazing shootout in the engine room, dark secrets and cheap plot twists all lead our “second rung nobody of a private eye” to the solution of another case, the reward money, and a roller coaster ride into the sunset with his best girl Rhonda Fonda.

   TOMORROW ALWAYS COMES is a film noir in black and white with a detective of color (not to be confused with the XXX TAMARA ALWAYS COMES)
