The Big Knife was a Broadway Play starring John Garfield and when John passed away, Hollywood made this story into a film in which Jack Palance played the role of (Charles Castle) along with Ida Lupino, (Marion Castle) who plays Charles's wife who also have a young son. Charles has been a successful actor and made many films in Hollywood and really wants to quit the movie industry and get back together with his wife and child who he has been separated from. However, Rod Steiger,(Stanley Shriner Hoff) is a famous Director and Producer who wants Charles to sign a seven ( 7 ) year contract and will not take no for an answer. Stanley does everything possible to make Charlie see his way and uses all kinds of strong arm tactics which creates a real drama. Great film and great acting by the entire cast. Enjoy
