Über diesen Film

Novelist Paul Sheldon doesn't remember the blizzard that sent his car spinning off the road. He doesn't remember being nursed back from unconsciousness. But he will never forget Annie Wilkes. James Caan and Kathy Bates star in the bone-shattering thriller ""Misery,"" adapted from the novel by Stephen King. As Paul (Caan) recuperates from his injuries in the secluded cabin of his benefactor Annie (Bates), he begins to discover that beneath the seemingly kind and naïve exterior of his self-described ""number one fan"" lurks a mind that is cunning, unhinged, and bent on keeping her favorite writer as her personal prisoner for the rest of his ""cock-a-doodie"" life...and Sheldon must engage his savior-turned-captor in a battle of wills that will push them both to the brink. Adapted by screenwriter William Goldman and directed by Rob Reiner, ""Misery"" is considered by critics and fans (number ones and others) to be among the greatest horror-thrillers of all-time.

Every time I see Cathy Bates on TV or movies my ankles hurt. Cain & Bates were fantastic, edge of seat thriller. Bates has a new series and we are hooked, Madam Matlock similar to Andy Griffith in that it’s a legal mystery series

We should have the option to rent the film, not buy it and the price is expensive for a movie so old

I thought this was a great movie another classic from stephen king great cast great story great horror flim
