"The next time you want to badmouth me, do it to my face."
Movie studio exec Griffin Mill (Tim Robbins) is being blackmailed by an anonymous scriptwriter who feels Mill has snubbed him. Mill suspects the blackmailer might be David Kahane (Vincent D'Onofrio).
Mill's job is on tenuous ground anyhow, as most jobs in Hollywood are, but he needs to not make his blackmail threat public and try to reason with the blackmailer. But when a death occurs, Mill is drawn further into a web which he needs to escape from.
Others appearing include Greta Scacchi as Kahane's girlfriend; Peter Gallagher as Larry Levy, man who may be getting Mill's job; Whoopi Goldberg and Lyle Lovett as detectives; plus Fred Ward, Dean Stockwell, Richard E, Grant, Sydney Pollack, Dina Merrill, and a cast of nearly thousands.
Very minor cameos by the likes of Angelica Huston, John Cusack, Harry Belafonte, Burt Reynolds, Patrick Swayze, Bruce Willis, Althea Gibson, Ray Walson, Robert Wagner, Lily Tomlin, Joan Tewkesbury, Rod Steiger, Susan Sarandon, Elliot Gould, Jill St. John, Mimi Rogers, Nick Nolte, Martin Mull, Malcolm McDowell, Marlee Matlin, Jack Lemmon, Sally Kirkland, Sally Kellerman, Kathy Ireland, Joel Grey, David Alan Grier, Buck Henry, Jeff Goldblum, Scott Glenn, Teri Garr, Dennis Frantz, Louise Fletcher, Felicia Farr, Peter Falk, Paul Dooley, Brad Davis, Cathy Lee Crosby, James Colburn, Cher, Robert Carradine, Rene Auberjonois, Richard Anderson, Steve Allen, Jayne Meadows, and many more.
Written and directed by Robert Altman.
Run time: 2 hours, 3 minutes
Rated R for language and some sensuality.
My personal rating: B
