Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })48 Hrs. is a 1982 Buddy Cop film starring Eddie Murphy and Nick Nolte. The film tells the story of gruff San Francisco cop Jack Cates (Nolte), who must track down escaped convict Albert Ganz (James Remar) with the temporary help of a street smart criminal named Reggie Hammond (Murphy) within 48 hours.Directed by Walter Hill of The Warriors fame, the film is often considered the first Buddy Cop film,note though earlier precursors include 1949's Stray Dog and 1967's In the Heat of the Night or at least the one to popularize the concept and would go on to inspire later movies such as Lethal Weapon and Tango and Cash.The film is also notable for being Eddie Murphy's film debut, helping jumpstart his successful career in film as well.A sequel, Another 48 Hrs. was released in 1990 and is the direct sequel to the 1982 film. It remains the only sequel to date Walter Hill has ever directed.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Not to be confused with CBS's documentary series 48 Hours, or A&E's The First 48.

Bedmate Reveal: During the beginning of the film after the opening credits end, we see a close up of a sleepy Jack Cates lying on his pillow and then his watch awakens him. Then the camera cuts to a woman named Elane Marshall who is wearing Jack's blue shirt.

Better Than Sex: After the shootout at the hotel, one of the hookers who was with Ganz and Billy says Ganz is going to give the police a hard time, "because I think he likes killing cops more than he likes getting laid."
