In a Los Angeles hotel room, a fateful encounter unfolds between a struggling journalist and a fading star. Jamie Dornan portrays Danny Tate, a cynical writer reluctantly assigned a profile piece on Hervé Villechaize, the actor famously known for his roles in Fantasy Island and The Man with the Golden Gun. What begins as a simple interview transforms into a long, intense, and revelatory night as Villechaize, played with captivating depth by Peter Dinklage, commandeers the conversation. Through a haze of cigarettes and confessions, the charismatic yet deeply troubled actor recounts the dizzying highs and devastating lows of his life in Hollywood, a journey marked by both extraordinary fame and profound isolation. Directed by Sacha Gervasi, this poignant drama peels back the glittering facade of celebrity to explore the complex man behind the iconic voice and stature, as two strangers form an unlikely connection over a single, unforgettable dinner.
