Reviews
" A washed-up Hollywood producer senses by a rising young author a new opportunity, but the bill has made without the financiers of the new system. A satirical, sometimes melancholic farewell to the Hollywood system of the old school, in the lead actor and director Burt Reynolds licks own wounds and lamented the dominance of the (bank) money. A comedy with a certain entertainment value for designated friends of the profession. "
