Product Description
Appearances are everything in Hollywood. So when conniving moviemaker Jonathan Shields realizes few mourners will show up for the funeral of his equally conniving father, he knows what to do: hire extras. Kirk Douglas gives a magnetic, Oscar -nominated performance as Shields, who turns talent, charisma and ruthlessness into film success, stomping on careers and creating enemies along the way. Vincente Minnelli directs this winner of five Academy Awards that's more than a compelling insider's look at Tinseltown: It's an opportunity for buffs to guess which real-life stars and moguls inspired the roles played by Douglas, Lana Turner, Walter Pidgeon, Dick Powell, Best Supporting Actress Gloria Grahame and more.

Side B: Lana Turner...A Daughter's Memoir, this is an excellent touching documentary narrated by Robert Wagner, voice only and interviewed through out by Cheryl Crane, Lana's daughter. There is some very rare footage, a must for Lana fans. However, documentary portrays the sad side lonely childhood Cheryl Crane had growing up without her mother being around. Cheryl grew up being supervised by her nanny and grandmother, while her mother was off making movies and running off with some man. The painful child molestation by Lex Barker to Cheryl is mentioned. The notorious Johnny Stompanato murder case is mentioned in great detail with rare footage of Lana in the court room. Documentary is very candid and portrays Cheryl as a down to earth candid person. This is her show. Documentary shows the loneliness of Hollywood children. This is a must for your Lana collecton but doesn't show Lana in a good light.
IN AN UNUSUAL CASTING, SCRIPT AND DIRECTING APPROACH:
>>>ACTORS IN LEAD ROLES AND SUPPORTING ROLES ARE EQUALLY
MATCHED IN TALENT WITH NO ONE FALLING SHORT AND
>>>EACH ONE OF THE CHARACTER ACTORS IS GIVEN THEIR
CLOSE-UP AND LINES THAT ALLOW THEM TO STAND OUT (THE MAN
EXPLAINING THE CAT COSTUMES, "BABY" ON SET AND ON THE
STAIRCASE AND THE DIRECTOR TALKING TO THE PRODUCER JUST
TO NAME A FEW SCENES.
THE RAKSIN FILM SCORE IS HAUNTING & TIES THE MOVIE SEGMENTS
TOGETHER AT JUST THE RIGHT MOMENT; A SKILL NOT OFTEN SEEN
IN MOVIES OF ANY ERA.

Le DVD que j'ai eu est un import coréen, version tous pays, comme bien souvent dans les pays asiatiques. Heureusement, tout est écrit en anglais car mon coréen est un peu faible (!!). Quant aux langues et sous-titres, rien à redire, ces derniers étant à foison. Une bonne copie, de bons souvenirs... Que demander de mieux ?
L’on nous sert combien les gens tortueux ont de la présence d’esprit, combien la bonne volonté ne réussit pas toujours, et que dans les vies narrées ici l’homme puissant qui veut faire profession de dirigeant ne peut également éviter sa perte parmi ses collaborateurs qui ne sont pas meilleurs.
Superbe.
