“At the time Peter Ou0026#39;Toole was Academy Award nominated as Best Actor, for his portrayal of one-step-above-God-himself, Eli Cross in The Stunt Man, my movie going experience was limited to The Wonderful World of the Brothers Grimm, Mary Poppins, and some post pubescent indulgences into the realm of Flint, Matt Helm, and James Bond.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThrough the magic of video I was able to see Richard Rushu0026#39;s wonderful black comedy- And have never tired of it.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eHad Mr. Ou0026#39;Toole and The Stunt Man not run headlong into the likes of Raging Bull, and Robert De Niro, I venture to say it would have garnered WINS, not just NOMINATIONS from the Academy that year.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eRent it and while youu0026#39;re at it reach for `My Favorite Yearu0026#39; and make it a Peter Ou0026#39;Toole double feature.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eYou will not be disappointed.”
