Academy Award night is a make-or-break event for Hollywood actor Frankie Fane. With a reputation for being difficult on the
set and bad box-office, Fane's years of high-living in tinseltown are coming to an end. Then somehow, Frankie is nominated
along with the likes of Richard Burton and Burt Lancaster for the Best Actor Oscar after playing a character with no morals, no
ethics, and no decency. People who know Frankie personally know he wasn't acting. He was playing himself. Will he win?
The envelope, please...
The Oscar stars Stephen Boyd, Elke Sommer, Milton Berle and Tony Bennett (in his feature film debut) and is loaded with cameos including Frank and Nancy Sinatra, Joseph Cotten, Bob Hope, Peter Lawford and Ernest Borgnine.
Don’t miss this rare opportunity to see one of the unsung classics of Hollywood camp!
"Bad Movie nirvana beckons in The Oscar, a foot-stompingly funny movie about a louse who stomps all over other louses to reach the top of the Hollywood dung heap. This is essential, hallucinatory viewing before you ever watch another Academy Awards ceremony." — Stephen Rebello, Movieline
"Every year around the Academy Awards, this trashy little flick should be seen!" — John Weber, Bad Movie Night
