From the moment he first appeared as a film noir protagonist in The Killers (1946), Burt Lancaster (1913-1994) dazzled audiences with his soft-spoken intensity and towering charisma. Then came rugged romantic parts (From Here to Eternity), swashbuckling acrobatics (The Crimson Pirate) and dramatic roles from acclaimed plays (The Rose Tattoo, Separate Tables). Unfazed, Lancaster went on to give searing performances as shrewd manipulators (Sweet Smell of Success, Elmer Gantry, Local Hero), aristocratic Italians (The Leopard, 1900) and military martinets (Seven Days in May). Join film historian Max Alvarez for this riveting study of Lancaster and his memorable films.
