Making movies can be murder

“I was just thinking what an interesting concept it is to eliminate the writer from the artistic process. If we could just get rid of these actors and directors, maybe we've got something here. "

Score two for Robbins early on in the game. Not a Tim Robbins fan but this wont be the last time you see him in my list. I like this movie for several reasons. First the interesting story within a story going on and also probing Hollywood satire. Not only is this movie entertaining but I think it gives a high level of how some of Hollywood operates. Overall the multiple story lines have enough going on to get give you even more on the second viewing. For all of these reasons the Player is on my list.
