The Stunt Man
If God could do the tricks that we can do, he'd be a happy man...
A playful, meta-theatrical thriller about a fugitive caught between survival and seduction on a chaotic film set, where reality and artifice blur.
A fugitive stumbles onto a movie set just when they need a new stunt man, takes the job as a way to hide out and falls for the leading lady while facing off with his manipulative director.
