This star-laden adaptation of Harold Robbins' best-selling 1949 novel about the birth of the movies features Mark Harmon as a drifter who comes under the wing of visionary nickelodeon operator Vincent Gardenia and goes on to become a pioneer in the incipient film business, facing the good times and the bad over a 20-year period.
