BIGGER THAN LIFE
(1956)
DIRECTOR: Nicholas Ray (REBEL WITHOUT A CAUSE)
STARS: James Mason, Barbara Rush, Walter Matthau, Roland Winters
SYNOPSIS: James Mason gets addicted to and abuses the hell out of prescription drugs in this Nic Ray cult classic. It's not campy but a well-made film that had to have balls back in 1956 to tackle this subject matter. After popping too many pills Mason feels he is "bigger than life" and talks down to everyone around him. His mood swings nearly drive him to violence. (Mason also produced the film.) WIDESCREEN!
BONUS: Original theatrical trailer.
