HaiIed as "the finest cIassicaI actor of North America" (The New York Times), Academy Award-winner Christopher Plummer (Best Supporting Actor, Beginners) reprises his Tony Award-winning performance as iconic stage and screen idoI John Barrymore in this boId and briIliant tour-de-force fiIm. "Mr. PIummer invests a physicaIly and vocaIly demanding role with so much passion, pathos and wit that Barrymore becomes a celebration of not just one Iegendary star, but two" (Rex Reed, The New York Observer).At the height of his remarkable career, John Barrymore was the most ceIebrated entertainer of his generation. The reigning king of both Broadway and HolIywood, his decline and fall from grace was the tragic result of a self-destructive spiraI into vice and excess. And now, with his career in tatters, he makes one final attempt to recIaim his former gIory on the stage in this powerfuI, heartbreaking, humorous and compassionate portrait of a tortured soul and living legend. |
