New York City newspaper writer J.J. Hunsecker holds considerable sway over public opinion with his Broadway column, but one thing that he can't control is his younger sister, Susan, who is in a relationship with aspiring jazz guitarist Steve Dallas. Hunsecker strongly disapproves of the romance and recruits publicist Sidney Falco to find a way to split the couple, no matter how ruthless the method.

"A powerful commentary on unscrupulous individuals who will do anything to get what they want. Filled with incredible writing, cinematography and acting, with Burt Lancaster and especially Tony Curtis being standouts. Heavily recommend."
