Rock Hudson stars in this suspenseful drama directed by John Frankenheimer. Having lost his purpose in life, middle-aged banker Arthur Hamilton (Hudson) is given the opportunity to take on a completely new life after receiving a phone call from his friend Charlie (Murray Hamilton), who he believed to be dead. After being approached by an organisation known only as 'The Company', Arthur is afforded the chance to fake his own death, change his appearance and create a new life. Grasping the opportunity, he adopts the identity of an artist named Tony Wilson, who owns a home in Malibu and has his own servant. But he comes to realise that his new transformation comes with unforeseen costs...
Jeff Corey (1914--2002) made a name for himself in the 1940s as a character actor in films like Superman and the Mole Men (1951), Joan of Arc (1948), and The Killers (1946). Everything changed in 1951, when he was summoned before the House Un-American Activities Committee. Corey refused to name names and was promptly blacklisted, which forced him to walk away from a vibrant livelihood as an actor and embark on a career as one of the industry's most revered acting instructors. In Improvising Out Loud: My Life Teaching Hollywood How to Act, Corey recounts his extraordinary story. Among the actors who would soon fill his classes were James Dean, Kirk Douglas, Jane Fonda, Rob Reiner, Jack Nicholson, and Leonard Nimoy. In 1962, when the blacklist ended, Corey was one of the industry's first trailblazers to seamlessly reboot his acting career and secure roles in some of the classic films of the era, including Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969), True Grit (1969), and Little Big Man (1970), in which he starred as the infamous Wild Bill Hickok. Throughout his life, Corey sought to capture the human heart: in conflict, in terror, in love, and in all of its small triumphs. His memoir, which he wrote with his daughter Emily Corey, provides a unique and personal perspective on the man whose teaching inspired some of Hollywood's biggest names to star in the roles that made them famous.
