The official synopsis reads:
JUST PLAY DEAD follows Jack (Samuel L. Jackson) on the run from the feds for embezzlement. But they can’t arrest a dead man. Jack’s plan? Frame his wife’s boy toy lover for poor Jack’s murder, split the insurance money with his grieving widow, Nora (Eva Green), and disappear. But Nora has a better idea. Kill Jack for real, frame the boy toy, and keep all the $30 million insurance money herself. Nora, after all, has a secret weapon, a homicide detective named Danny who is in love with her, and about to get caught in Jack and Nora’s web. In this stylish film noir thriller, everyone tells each other the truth, and everything they say is a lie. The only question is, who will be left standing at the end of the dance?
