One of the most enigmatic and controversial movie producers in Hollywood history, Sam Spiegel fled the spectre of Nazi Germany in 1933 to become the only person to win three Oscars as sole producer for the feature films On The Waterfront (1954), Bridge on the River Kwai (1957) and Lawrence of Arabia (1962). A maverick and an uncompromising taskmaster, the last tycoon of Hollywood’s Golden Age left behind an impressive and colourful legacy including an extensive award-winning filmography and the Sam Spiegel School of Film and Television in Jerusalem.
Reviews
A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
