Film Description

Altman's cynical take on the film industry tells of a high-powered movie executive whose life starts falling apart when he receives threatening postcards in the mail. Altman adapts every stereotype, technique and trick in the book to produce a masterpiece. Stacked with ironies and in-jokes, this is a delight.
