Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This film is so great, but it's certainly not for all tastes. I saw it for the first time a few months ago(in a rare screening) and have recently acquired the video and watched it again. Rip Torn is so good as country-western singer Maury Dann. This character is just evil, but evil in the kind of way that one can be fascinated by him. It's a great story in which you spend about a day and half with Maury, his band and his manager. There's lots of enjoyable behind-the-scenes type stuff(some of it is quite disturbing). If your a fan of films that might offend your sensibilities a little and you don't mind characters that aren't necessarily folks you'd want to join up with, you will enjoy this film. I sincerely hope it finds lots of new fans on video-it has all the makings of a cult classic.

His life is on the road, his career is on the skids; but maybe a country singer's next song can take him out of the honky tonks and onto the radio hit parade. Rip Torn scores in this chronicle of show business backstage. Year: 1972 Director: Daryl Duke Starring: Rip Torn
