Rough, tough Chuck Tatum, who battered his way to the top … trampling everything in his path – men, women and morals! Washed up in the big city and now down-and-out in Albuquerque, a ruthlessly ambitious journalist finds the scoop of a lifetime – a man desperately trapped in a cave – and manipulates the rescue and ensuing media sensation for his own gain, only to find it escalating beyond his control. An electrifying Kirk Douglas shines in Billy Wilder’s scathing follow-up to Sunset Boulevard.
