Hollywood superstar Charlie Castle (Palance) has it all...except a way out. When he tries to leave show business, his tyrannical studio boss Stanley Hoff (Steiger) blackmails him with a lethal, covered-up secret that could land him in jail. A loose-lipped starlet (Winters) also knows too much, and when she starts talking, Hoff plans murder. Now Charlie is more cornered than ever — on the brink of losing his wealth, his power...and his soul.

Cast: Jack Palance, Ida Lupino, Wendell Corey, Jean Hagen, Rod Steiger, Ilka Chase, Everett Sloane, Shelley Winters. Produced and directed by Robert Aldrich.

From the stage play by Clifford Odets; adapted for the screen by James Poe.
