The Stunt Man

In an iconic Oscar-nominated performance, Peter O’ Toole (LAWRENCE OF ARABIA) is film director Eli Cross: a megalomaniacal madman commanding a circus of a production where paranoid young Vietnam vet Steve Railsback (LIFEFORCE) finds himself maybe replacing a dead stunt man, possibly falling for leading lady Barbara Hershey (BEACHES) and discovering that love, death, and the mayhem of moviemaking are the wildest illusions of all.

“A bravura piece of moviemaking — a true popular work of modernist art. It makes the audience experience the uncertainty of the contemporary world.” — Rolling Stone
