Few films are as obscure and as wonderful as this one (but you'd better love the dark and quirky!).

I saw this on Sundance Channel the other night, and LOVED it. It is kind of like the proverbial train wreck you can't look away from, because the people are SUCH nasty sob's but you enjoy watching them out-do each other for supremacy. Among the standout perfs (O'Toole is amazing as the wax-dummy-faced ego-driven superstar) are the great black actor who is featured in AMC's "Hustle" series, here not as a con man but as a biographer of O'Toole's character drawn into the intrigue. The plot revolves around the rivalry of O'Toole and a younger guy over two competing gameshows in the UK that are up for consideration for export to the USA and big money. The plot then delves into their interestingly intertwined backgrounds and how they keep trying, with ever-increasing degrees of violence and visciousness, to sabotage the other. Its nasty, hilarious, and riveting...and when it comes out in a USA-compatible DVD I'll buy it at once.
