An unscrupulous movie producer, played with great aplomb by Kirk Douglas in his pomp, has used an actress (Lana Turner), a director (Barry Sullivan) and a writer (Dick Powell) to achieve his successes; now he needs them once again.
Winner of five Oscars, Vincente Minnelli’s masterful film rips away the shine of Hollywood and delivers a cinematic tour de force that perfectly showcases the director’s attention to detail and his mastery of the melodramatic form.
