The Big Picture (1989)
Film school prepared Nick for everything... everything but Hollywood.
Starring Kevin Bacon, Emily Longstreth, J.T. Walsh
Directed by Christopher Guest
Hollywood beckons for recent film school grad Nick Chapman, who is out to capitalize on the momentum from his national award-winning student film. Studio executive Allen Habel seduces Nick with a dream deal to make his first feature, but once production gets rolling, corporate reality begins to intervene: Nick is unable to control a series of compromises to his high-minded vision, and it's all he can do to maintain his integrity in the midst of filmmaking chaos.
