Kirk Douglas gives a magnetic performance as a movie producer who turns his talent, charisma and ruthlessness into film success, stomping on careers and creating enemies along the way.

Vincente Minnelli directed this scathing study of the movie industry and Hollywood "glamour." An egotistical producer, Jonathan Shields (Douglas), determined to prove himself the finest filmmaker of all, gladly steps all over those who helped him when he was starting out. Told from the perspective of three victims -- an actress (Turner), a writer (Powell), and a director (Sullivan) -- this picture captured five Oscars and also includes what many believe is Turner's finest performance ever.

3 stars Superior Materpiece!
Definitely one of the best films by the master Minnelli. Not to be missed by all classical lovers. It's the kind of which they don't make anymore!! It is only a pity that its sequel "Two Weeks In Another Town", and other gems like "Home From The Hill" and "Some Came Running" by the same Director are not released, yet on DVD!! It's about high time they do so!!!!

5 stars A must see Old-Hollywood Picture
This is definately a top twenty movie. Kirk Dougals is fablous, expecially his scenes with Lana Turner. You will see one of the greatest all time scenes when Douglas (aka-Shields) carries Turner through his backyard and dumps her in his pool....

DVD $10.09  5 stars Top 500
Don Siegel's cult masterpiece, interpreted as an allegory of both McCarthyism and Communism, is undoubtedly one of the screen's most disturbing evocations of paranoia. It stars Kevin McCarthy as Dr. Miles Binnell, a physician whose traumatized arrival in the emergency room of a San Francisco hospital leads the staff to believe he's lost his mind. In a series of flashbacks, he unwinds a bizarre account of his last few days. After his return from a trip to rural Santa Mira, his nurse, Sally (Jean Willes), explains that his office has been flooded with patients who have made appointments yet never appeared. Former girlfriend Becky Driscoll (Dana Wynter) tells him that she's unable to rid herself of the belief that the man claiming to be her uncle is an impostor. A hysterical young boy refuses to return home, claiming that his mother is not his mother. Miles's concern over this pattern of incidents, ...

After the 9-11 tragedy the New York Theatre community was reeling and trying to find a way to respond to the horrific event with equal parts respect and reverence.

Her story became THE GUYS, which has now been adapted and directed by Simpson for the big screen and stars Sigourney Weaver (Simpson's wife) as Joan, a freelance journalist living and working in Manhattan during the days following September 11th. Joan is horrified by the tragedy, but feels like an ...
