Storyline
Frankie Fane has clawed his way to the top of the Hollywood heap. Now, as he's preparing to win his Oscar, his friend Hymie Kelly reminisces over their life together, and Frankie's ruthless struggle to the top and the people he's stepped on (i.e., everyone else in the movie) to make it there.

Trivia
According to the Harlan Ellison documentary "Dreams With Sharp Teeth", he wrote the screenplay with Steve McQueen and 'Peter Falk' in mind to play the leads. See more »Goofs
Incorrectly regarded as goofs: The newspaper photos of Cheryl Barker hitting Frankie don't match the scene when it happens. She could have hit him twice (she was angry enough), and the photographers might have caught the second hit. See more »Quotes
