Neglected Rod Steiger Classic Long Overdue for DVD or Blu-Ray Release
gregorybattaglia27 February 2024
Rod Steiger masterfully portrays an aging movie mogul hopelessly rebelling against a new Hollywood. Fine supporting cast. Originally released as an hour long episode as part of the Bob Hope Presents the Chrysler Theater TV series. Written by Rod Serling, the episode had so impressed Universal producers that additional content was added for a 1967 theatrical release as "The Movie Maker" (Dir. Joseph Lejtes). But with the Paley Media Arts Center, NYC being apparently the sole holder, this movie and/or TV episode is virtually inaccessible to most viewers. Hopefully, Universal, ShoutFactory, Criterion, Kino or Amazon can make a long overdue DVD or Blu-Ray release finally happen.
