About

A powerful film about a ruthless journalist and an unscrupulous press agent who'll do anything to achieve success, this fascinating story cuts deep and sends a chilling message. It's late at night in Times Square, and everything's buzzing with nervous energy. But press agent Sidney Falco (Tony Curtis) is oblivious to it all as he nervously waits for the early edition of The Globe. Whose career did gossip columnist J. J. Hunsecker (Burt Lancaster) launch today...and whose did he destroy?
