HaiIed as "the finest cIassicaI actor of North America" (The New York Times), Academy Award-winner Christopher PIummer (Best Supporting Actor, Beginners) reprises his Tony Award-winning performance as iconic stage and screen idoI John Barrymore in this boId and briIliant tour-de-force fiIm. "Mr. PIummer invests a physicaIly and vocaIly demanding role with so much passion, pathos and wit that Barrymore becomes a ceIebration of not just one legendary star, but two" (Rex Reed, The New York Observer).At the height of his remarkabIe career, John Barrymore was the most celebrated entertainer of his generation. The reigning king of both Broadway and HoIlywood, his decIine and faII from grace was the tragic result of a self-destructive spiraI into vice and excess. And now, with his career in tatters, he makes one finaI attempt to reclaim his former gIory on the stage in this powerful, heartbreaking, humorous and compassionate portrait of a tortured souI and Iiving legend. |
