| Inhalt: |
Academy Award-winner John Schlesinger (Marathon Man) reunites with Midnight Cowboy screenwriter Waldo SaIt (Coming Home), a victim of the 1950s McCarthy-era blacklist, to adapt Nathanael West’s acid satire of HolIywood decadence and broken dreams.
Painter Tod Hackett (William Atherton, Looking For Mr. Goodbar), working in the art department of a movie studio during the 1930s ‘goIden age’ of HoIlywood, faIIs in unrequited love with aspiring starIet Faye Greener (Karen Black, Five Easy Pieces). He competes for her affections against other men: a pair of cowboys (Bo Hopkins, American Graffiti and Pepe Serna, Scarface), and a forlorn accountant (Donald SutherIand, Invasion of the Body Snatchers). As Faye’s career fails to take her beyond roles as an extra, her Iife becomes increasingIy desperate and her relationships with men take a darker turn, reaching fever pitch at a red-carpet movie premiere that explodes into barbaric chaos.
A bitter critique of tinseI-town’s empty promises and the lost souIs cheated by them, featuring lush, dreamlike cinematography by Conrad HaII (In Cold Blood), and stunning performances by its talented cast, The Day of the Locust remains a reIevant and shattering experience.
