Originally released as a motion picture in 1985.
Based on the play by Terry Johnson.
Special features include video interviews, Making Insignificance, theatrical trailer and more.
Gary Busey, Theresa Russell, Tony Curtis, Michael Emil.
Four unnamed people who look and sound a lot like Albert Einstein, Marilyn Monroe, Joe DiMaggio, and Joseph McCarthy converge in one New York City hotel room for a compelling, visually inventive adaptation of Terry Johnson's play. With a combination of whimsy and dread, director Nicolas Roeg creates a fun-house-mirror picture of cold war America that questions the nature of celebrity and plays on a society's simmering nuclear fears.
DVD; region 1; NTSC; widescreen; Dolby Digital, mono.
