Sinister Saga of Making The Stunt Man - Synopsis
Peter O'Toole puts it succinctly, "The Stunt Man wasn't
released, it escaped." Director Richard Rush returns 20 years
later to this highly praised 1980 film in this two-hour
documentary chronicling the decade-long struggle from creation
to distribution. Rush calls Sinister Saga a home movie, and it
essentially is with Rush talking to the camera--there is no
footage from the film's actual shoot. If you can get by the
lack of gloss, you're left with an extremely personal view of
the filmmaking, and a behind-the-scenes look that is
refreshingly void of studio hype. Included are interviews 20
years later with cast members who fondly remember the film's
shoot. It's interesting to note that if The Stunt Man was made
20 years later, it would have never struggled. The film would
simply have been relegated to cable or a straight-to-video
release. --Doug Thomas
