This movie is truly a cult classic. And incredibly hard to get, whether the director Richard Rush wanted it that way, or whether it is so revolutionary that it has been suppressed, if you get a chance to obtain this movie I suggest you do so. I finally got mine. Ive seen this movie before. Its plot involves an escaped convict and a egomanical movie director and the lovely Barbara Hershey as the romantic interest. I want to make a movie someday. Im working on it right now, even have a social website, Z Dreaming World, where I hope to find and cultivate friendships with others with the same dream and interest. The lighting and camera work in this movie is fantastic. Basically, a stunt scene goes bad as Steve Railsback(the convict) stumbles onto the movie site and the stuntman is killed. The director, played by Peter O'toole I think, covers up the accident and convinces Steve Railsback to play the part. Reality mixes with fantasy and perceptions are altered and revealed in unique and interesting ways. Even harder to get than an original copy of To Live And Die In L.A.(another fantastic movie), The Stunt Man DVD isn't out there as a download or a torrent file, at least not that I found. Prices for this movie where it is available are sky high. The copy I got is one of the limited 100,000 released on this special anniversary edition and I am most happy to have this wonderful cult classic DVD movie, The Stunt Man.

This is a well crafted movie. Every scene to produced perfect. There is action in this movie about making a movie. Everytime you think you know what is happening, you really don't. You see the behind the scenes of making a movie. Peter O'Tool is shining as a master manipulator/director. I have rented this movie to show to other people. I watched the first time over twenty years ago. It still impresses me. Not all movies can hold up to the test of time. There is a song in the movie with the line in the lyrics "Nothing is really what it seems."
this is a great film. peter o toole in one of his best acting roles. great story, great action and great twists and turns. well worth to have in your collection.
The story of a convict who ends up on a movie set and joins on as a stuntman leading to his somewhat regretful decision.
Chose this title because of its cult status, but was disappointed in the product. Basically watching the making of a movie by an egocentric director without a whole lot of plot. Haven't yet felt the need to watch the "Making of" documentary.
exelente El especialista (DVD, 2001, edición limitada; Contiene independiente "Making of" documental)
It is a real twisting, turning type of movie that my husband and I watched first time when we were younger, and it still remains one of the tops for both of us.
