The Last Tycoon (Special Edition)

F. Scott Fitzgerald's unfinished roman a clef of Old Hollywood served as the basis for this intriguing drama, as an Irving Thalberg-esque studio honcho (Robert de Niro) must juggle the pressures of his business responsibilities, crumbling marriage, and declining health. For his final credit, Elia Kazan directs a stellar ensemble including Robert Mitchum, Tony Curtis, Jeanne Moreau, and Jack Nicholson; screenplay by Harold Pinter. 123 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtracks: English DTS 5.1, DTS Lossless stereo; Subtitles: English; audio commentary.
