Player, The (1992)
An only slightly annoying movie with minor political value as a
satire on Hollywood's ruling elite. The hero is a power-mongering
jerk; the film tries to condemn the decadence and grotesque wealth
associated with the movie industry. Unfortunately it is co-opted
by the industry itself, showing its liberalism and support of free
speech by letting a bunch of its stars make cameo appearances and
allowing such criticism of itself to be produced and distributed.
The best scene is where the producer and his girlfriend lie in a
bathtub covered with caked black mud, looking very dead. Not a bad
commentary on their meaningless, vapid lives.
