The few comments I've read here about the movie seem to refer quite a bit to Fitzgerald's book. I happen to believe that a movie should be judged on its own merits. The Last Tycoon, then, is probably one of those many movies that pales in comparison to the book. Nonetheless, this movie is an excellent work. De Niro is excellent as Monroe Stahr, the reclusive studio head who concerns himself more with the quality of a film rather than the revenue it would generate, an aspect that ultimately leads to his demise. Movies are a passion of his, soon superseded by an interest in a woman (Moore) who reminds him of a lost love. Ultimately, Stahr loses everything, his career and Moore, shattering his dreams of happiness with a disheartening realism.
This is the only Kazan movie I've ever seen, breaking a vow that I would never see one of his films after learning about his aggressively anti-communist (anti-freedom) history. Kazan does a wonderful job of directing, however, helped not in the least by an extremely talented cast (particularly noteworthy is De Niro's performance in his early Taxi Driver Raging Bull acting days). The woman who plays Moore could've done a better job, having this elusive, ethereal beauty at some points in the film, then an annoying vapidness in other parts. The movie portrays love and ambition in a humanizing light, without the gut wrenching sentimentality of many movies of this genre. Particularly wonderful was Stahr's acting of a certain scene twice (one to motivate a screenwriter named Boxley, and the other in the end of the film, a desperate coming to terms of a love lost twice). Also beautiful was the role movies played in Stahr's life; in one sense he vicariously experiences love in the films (and loses his love in the above-mentioned scene he acts out), and in another sense, movies mark the rise and fall of his power, as he fades into a dark, empty movie lot in the end.
Wonderful film... don't read the book, it'll only ruin it.
