A cave collapse in New Mexico traps a man, and all eyes turn toward the tragedy including those of Charles "Chuck" Tatum (Kirk Douglas), a washed-up newspaper reporter who sees the incident as a ticket back to his former days at the top of the journalism heap.

Graderings en resensies

This movie has a lot of metaphors and says quite a bit about society. I really enjoyed it. At times it shows its age but the story holds up well. Kirk Douglas was really good and Billy Wilder proves why he is one of the great filmmakers.

He never learns it is not about him.

Fantastic film.
