Who Framed Roger Rabbit

Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988) is a landmark crime comedy you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Robert Zemeckis for Amblin Entertainment and Touchstone Pictures. Bob Hoskins plays Eddie Valiant, a down-at-heel private eye in 1940s Hollywood where cartoon characters — called Toons — live and work alongside humans.

When studio boss Marvin Acme turns up dead, Roger Rabbit is the prime suspect. Eddie can't stand Toons, but he takes the case anyway. What starts as a simple frame-up spirals into something far darker: Christopher Lloyd's Judge Doom is one of the most genuinely unsettling screen villains of the era. The film cost $70 million to produce, blending hand-drawn animation with live action in a way that had never been done at this scale — it earned nearly $330 million worldwide.

Three Academy Awards followed: Visual Effects, Film Editing, and Sound Effects Editing, plus a Special Achievement Oscar for the technical breakthrough. Charles Fleischer voiced Roger, while Kathleen Turner brought Jessica Rabbit to life without a screen credit. Four decades on, the film holds up not as a novelty but as a proper noir mystery.
