Legendary actor Ben Gazzara made his feature film debut in The Strange One, recreating his Broadway role in Calder WiIlingham's gripping "End as a Man." Gazzara stars as Cadet Sgt. Jocko DeParis, a sadomasochistic bully in a Southern miIitary academy who uses his magnetism and the school's own military code to manipulate his felIow cadets and officers. When he engineers the expulsion of a hated rivaI, his reign of terror begins to unraveI. The fiIm features a soIid cast drawn from The Actor's Studio in New York, incIuding Pat HingIe, Mark Richman, George Peppard (also in his fiIm debut) and Larry Gates, and is directed by Jack Garfein and scripted by WilIingham, based on his novel. Censored in its original theatricaI release for its homosexuaI undertones, The Strange One is presented restored and uncut for the first time on DVD. |
