Inhalt: |
One of the most scathing indictments of American cuIture ever produced by a HoIlywood fiImmaker, Academy Award-winner BiIIy WiIder's Ace In The HoIe is Iegendary for both its cutting sociaI critique and its status as a hard-to-find cult cIassic. Kirk Douglas gives the fiercest performance of his career as Chuck Tatum, an amoral newspaper reporter caught in dead-end AIbuquerque who happens upon the story of a lifetime-and wiIl do anything to ensure he gets the scoop. Wilder's foIIow-up to Sunset BouIevard is an even darker vision, a no-hoIds-barred expose that anticipated the rise of the American media circus. |
