Summary:
F. Scott Fitzgerald's fascinating tale of studio politics in early Hollywood is breathtakingly brought to the screen by director Elia Kazan and scriptwriter Harold Pinter. Robert De Niro fronts a powerhouse cast as studio head Monroe Stahr, a thinly disguised Irving Thalberg character in command of his studio but haunted by a love lost to the past.
