Product description

Stephen Boyd, Elke Sommer, Tony Bennett, Edie Adams, Ernest Borgnine, Milton Berle, Eleanor Parker, Joseph Cotten, Jill St. John, Ed Begley, Walter Brennan and Broderick Crawford co-star in this overheated camp-classic masculine version of All About Eve. Frankie Fane (Boyd) has clawed his way to the top of the Hollywood heap. Now, as he’s preparing to win his first Oscar, his friend Hymie Kelly (Bennett) reminisces about their life together, his ruthless struggle to the top and the people (see above) he’s stepped on to make it there. Nominated for 2 Oscars for Art Direction-Set Decoration (Color) and Costume Design (Color). Includes cameos by Hollywood legends Bob Hope, Frank Sinatra, Edith Head, Merle Oberon, Nancy Sinatra, Joan Crawford and Hedda Hopper. Directed by Russell Rouse (The Thief, The Fastest Gun Alive, The Caper of the Golden Bulls), with a screenplay by the great Harlan Ellison (The Outer Limits, The Twilight Zone), Rouse and Clarence Greene (Pillow Talk, D.O.A.), based on a novel by Richard Sale (The White Buffalo, Driftwood).

アカデミー賞獲得工作　トニー・ベネット唯一の出演映画
Reviewed in Japan on 20 August 2021
Verified Purchase
大学生の頃テレビで観ましたが大変興味深い筋書で、落ち目の映画スター、フランク・フェイン（スティーブン・ボイド）がアカデミー賞の主演男優賞にノミネートされたのを契機に返り咲きを狙い、賞獲得のため同情票狙いの工作など様々な策を弄して……、というお話。フランクの親友、ハイミー・ケリーを演じるのが何とトニー・ベネット。トニー唯一の映画出演で、なかなかの熱演。トニーは1981年だったか1982年だったかの来日（この時の公演はNHKで放映されました。DVDを出してくれないでしょうか）の際のインタビューで、「演技を学んだことがある」と語っていました（確か、「アメリカン・シアター・ウィング」だったと思います）。
　アカデミー賞が背景の映画なので、ボブ・ホープやフランクとナンシーのシナトラ父娘など、ハリウッドの有名人が実名の本人役で登場するのがお楽しみ。特にボブ・ホープはオープニングとクライマックスの授賞式にちゃんと司会者として登場するのが笑わせます。
　この米盤ブルーレイは日本製プレーヤーで再生できますが、やはり日本語字幕がないと日本人にはつらいです。ぜひ国内版も発売してほしいものです。

□この作品を初めて観たのは、50年ほど前、深夜のテレビ放送でした。その頃は、歌手のトニー・ベネットのことも知らず、後になって彼が主題歌をうたっているLPレコードを購入。その後、この作品の音楽を作曲したパーシー・フェイスのLPも聴き、いつかこの作品に再会したちろ思うようになっていました。作品の印象は今となってはいかにも作り物の感じがしました。同じようにハリウッドを舞台にした「哀愁の花びら」にも同じような印象をもったものです。しかし、それでもこの作品に出演している多くのスター達の姿に会えるのは楽しいことです。彼らは映画の中で生き生きとしており、永遠に年を取りません。「Maybe September」のメロディーもいつまでも生き続けるでしょう。

THE STAR RATING IS DECEIVING!!!!!!!
Reviewed in the United States on 5 February 2020
Verified Purchase
OK, this movie has been off the shelves for YEARS. It is known to be infamously BAD. But I'm on this mission - I'm trying to see EVERY competitively nominated film that has been given Academy recognition - all 3000+ (I made up the number but it's close to that). This picture received 2 nominations at the 1966 ceremonies for costumes and sets (trust me! you would never get it in the screenwriting categories). The badness starts right in the credits and carries on right to the end. The cast is HUGE both with name actors and wannabees. The cameos are endless and actually contain a number of people who I'm sure are rollling over in their graves when you mention this film. The heart of the problem is Steven Boyd: Steven Boyd was never a great actor, but he's pretty good in this film. The problem is, I wonder if it is acting - he plays a ruthless, cheesey, desperate individual that bullies his way thru the picture taking advantage of everyone AND THEY ALL TAKE IT - they complain but they take it. His first girlfriend is Jill St John (who I'm wondering if she remembers it) who's not in the film long but long enuf to get used, chewed up and thrown out. His wife is Elke Sommer (who couldn't act). He berates her daily, and she leaves and then comes back for more. Thru it all is his best friend - Tony Martin who takes Boyd's crap on an hourly basis. He whines and cries and feels sorry for himself but he comes back in the next scene ready for more - he's a pathetic character (one of many). Milton Berle is in the cast in one of the few (if only) dramatic roles he's ever played. If you read any other reviews, you will find he is the only character the critics could tolerate. The film(?) was executively produced by Joseph E. Levine who was an expert at taking good properties and turning them into GodAwful films.
SO WHY THE FIVE STARS???
The 5 stars are because you can't make a picture this bad unintentionally. You have to TRY to be this way. Hopefully PRIME will put this out on a streaming contract. It's not necessarily worth buying unless you are in my position and trying to see as much honored(?) film as possible. But if you do decide to watch it - start a load of laundry without the soap in the machine --- there will be plenty of that soap on the TV. It just won't be sudsy.

My Dream Came True!!!
Reviewed in the United States on 17 February 2020

I dreamed for years that somehow this movie would be put on DVD. It has been my 'guilty pleasure' since seeing it as a young teen. I have told people for years, that this movie is so bad that it's good....Overacting...Yes! Beautiful clothes...Yes! A bevy of stars from the past...Yes! I just adore this movie! As I said previously, it's so bad that it's good is so true. Once I start watching it, I just can't stop, and I have seen it over the years more than 100 times. I actually taped it on VHS decades ago from late night TV and have continued to watch it all the time. If you are a film buff, and enjoy seeing the stars from Hollywood's Golden Age all in one place, than don't pass up the opportunity to see this...you won't be sorry!

HAYLYN. THE ANALOGUE MAN
Eye Of The Beholder...
Reviewed in the United States on 23 February 2020
Verified Purchase
Never did see The Oscar in the cinema or any other source, TV or Video issue as there were none. Always had the CD of Percy Faith great score having played it as a substitute to the film, wondering what it would be like.
It has taken until now with two of my very obscure wants, 'Underwater ' and 'The Oscar' being recently released.
I wasn't disappointed with either, The Oscar has all the excitement I used to read about in the film magazines in my early days, about Hollywood.
With all that temptation in the dream factory, it all comes out in this film. A very bitter man, who because of something happening in his childhood, affects his relationship with everyone he meets. From the early years of trying to get into the entertainment business and to the heights of Hollywood stardom, he mow down everyone in his path to get what he wants, despite the hurt and tragedy he creates.
Stephen Boyd is a great actor and has terrific screen presence, as he wields his destruction in such venom, in real life he would be eliminated fast. But this is from the Hollywood dream factory. Some beautiful actresses dressed with famous Edith Head's designed costumes for the film, and with a very short cameo appearance. Hansom actors of the time also grace the screen. The print is Full Widescreen and the Blu Ray is a nice fine grained picture.
With all the star appearances, one particularly was impressive, the singer Tony Bennett, as the faithful friend of Boyd, who insult and abuse him to the end of the film. It was nice to watch his performance. The film starts and ends with the Oscar ceremony with the story in between. A terrific film, worth every minute,but as I mentioned, it's all in the eye of the beholder.
Recommended.
