Based on the mystery surrounding the death of actor George Reeves , The movie explores possible
scenarios leading to his death through the eyes of an detective played by Brody . As the detective
continues to unravel more and more about reeve's life, relationships and his career , he starts
to find parallels between both of thier lives.

Another great performance by Adrien brody as the detective , and a surprisingly affectionate
turn by ben afflect as the doomed actor . The recreation of 50s hollywood is brilliant and film also boasts of effective performance from the likes of bob hoskins , diane lane and robin tunney .
