My favorite scene in this film, between Ferrer and Ed Wynn, who speaks about being 'faintly ridiculous'. Resigned, he tells Ferrer's character he's used to people seeing him as foolish, because of his appearance. And the end of the scene, which is really quite touching... Ferrer assures him he doesn't think that at all. What a wonderful film. A great companion piece BTW with A FACE IN THE CROWD..starring Andy Griffith.

Cynthia Hawkins That's one of the things I love about this movie; Joe Harris turns from cocky to humble as he learns the stories of all the people he interviews. He has a heart and what he learns shocks him. Like he went to Carol's apartment thinking he was going to get laid. By the time he left, that was the last thing on his mind. Humbled again.

The 'funeral recordings' where they used the old lady's words, but 'doctored' the remarks of the kids..and you see as the film goes on, as you note, that Ferrer's character begins to totally change his view about this..and about the 'great' guy who has died.

Really great movie! Having Ed and Keenan Wynn, both in dramatic roles in characters,polar opposites?? Genius!! And Jose Ferrar, what a consummate, talented actor! Loved this. I faintly recall hearing this was sort of an expose of Arthur Godfrey...who probably did inspire Fuller's persona! As a child, we watched him everyday, and he was like a family friend to my folks. Ferrar's character reminds me of Paul Harvey's The Rest of the Story.

Thanks for the upload, I love this film. I especially love the way it sets itself up, from the start, as a sort of anti-"Citizen Kane" when Harris and Moore ask Fuller's doctor what the Great Man's Last Words were, and the doctor replies that he only spoke one word. The audience leans forward, expecting something mysterious and deep like "Rosebud," but instead, hears it was one of those words you usually see written on bathroom walls!

This, to me, is a Great Classic ... Film Noir regular screen adds to it. Outstanding acting, sets, lighting, sound, music. script. For decades, my impression of Jose Ferrer was based on his part in "Lawrence." I had no idea, at the time, that he was just as big a name, had as big a mind, and any of the other major stars in "Lawrence." And; what a voice! Also, a "good-on-you" to Julie London in this pic; NICE Act! Thank you Marisa Relay.

In my life, I've met all kinds of 'stars' and 'heroes' that were anything but. Many were really cool. Some were lying thieving drug addicted assholes. Most were flawed, and dysfunctional as all Humans are- but they seemed to be able to function without this being an issue in the music business. I first saw this film, ironically, a long time ago, on the Late, Late show in N.Y. City, as I'm a real night owl, as a musician. I never saw it before.. it's a hidden classic.

Hey Burl--- This bit of nit-picking is completely useless. I'm an audio technician so of course I spotted this, but I'm sure any non-tech person could see this. And I'm guessing about 5 people in the world care. Mostly though, at the time this film was made, it was basically not workable to sync stuff like this, where a few minutes of film had to be synced to a voice-over done later. This is different than having an actor come into the studio later and reciting their lines as they watch themselves mouth the words on the film.

Her record "Give a Little More' comes on and she starts singing along to her own recording. The other drunks deride and make fun of her and she goes ballistic...

A lot of people don't know that Jose Ferrer was Puerto Rican ,He could go mamo amano with the best Britain"s best Actors! Puerto Rico been small Island but with a lot of talented people that has come out of her. Singers Actors, Boxers (Hector Camacho) just to name a few.

I almost died the first time I saw him sing. I had only known him through this movie so it was a bit of a shock to see him so animated.

Great cast, but a sleep-inducing movie. Trying to imagine moviegoers of 1956 sitting through 90 minutes of dialog with zero action -- apart from incessant smoking. That's a radio play if ever I heard one.

Sure the '50s were conformist. But there were plenty of movies, like A Face in the Crowd, The Hucksters, Ace in the Hole, The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit, this one --- the exposed the little man behind the curtain controlling the wizard.
