A Face in the Crowd
Meet Lonesome Rhodes: drifter, storyteller and guitar-picker.
He's been in and out of jails aplenty but now he has reason to
smile. He's just met his perfect match, a piece of talking
furniture known as television.
Andy Griffith made his stunning movie debut as Lonesome, a big
ol' teddy bear whose meteoric rise to TV fame is paralleled by
his plunge into booze, sex and political corruption. From On the
Waterfront's Academy Award-winning collaborators, director Elia
Kazan and screenwriter Budd Schulberg, A Face in the Crowd
carries the white-hot edge of filmmakers who know the media
world from the inside out. Patricia Neal, Walter Matthau,
Anthony Franciosa and film-debuting Lee Remick are the other
faces you'll remember in this captivating Crowd.
