A cave collapse in New Mexico traps a man, and all eyes turn toward the tragedy... including those of Charles "Chuck" Tatum (Kirk Douglas), a washed-up newspaper reporter who sees the incident as a ticket back to his former days at the top of the journalism heap. As the media circus begins to swirl around the trapped man's plight, Tatum takes command of the situation, embellishing the unfolding drama and prolonging the rescue effort … while feeding stories to the nation's reporters clamoring to cover the event. Celebrated director Billy Wilder (SUNSET BOULEVARD)mixes gritty cynicism with a superb cast in this powerful, fascinating study of the dark side of the human soul.

WilderSimply one of the most underrated of American film noirs. A cynical film about lost post WWII America, the mendacious mass media, and best and the worst of human nature, this was Wilder's brilliant follow-up to Sunset Boulevard. Ace In The Hole was way ahead of its time and only in the last few years has the film been acknowledged as one of Wilder's greatest masterpieces. Douglas is so good, so wily and manipulative, he can steal a scene from himself..Score: 5/5

Když náhodou objeví ve skalním indiánském sídlišti zasypaného člověka, ucítí velkou příležitost k návratu mezi žurnalistickou elitu. Věrný heslům "dobrá zpráva, žádná zpráva" a "špatná zpráva se prodává nejlíp" zorganizuje záchrannou akci takovým způsobem, aby mohl exkluzivními materiály co nejdéle zásobovat lačné noviny. Na opuštěném místě staré indiánské památky vypukne obrovský mediální cirkus s podporou tisíců čumilů, kteří se přijedou podívat i s rodinami na cizí neštěstí a hrdinskou práci záchranářů a tisku".

Ο ξεπεσμένος ρεπόρτερ Τσακ Τέιτουμ πιάνει δουλειά σε μια μικρή εφημερίδα της Αλμπουρκέρκης. Όταν ένας ντόπιος εργάτης εγκλωβίζεται σε παλιό ορυχείο της περιοχής, ο Τσακ πιστεύει πως ήρθε η ευκαιρία να επανέλθει δυναμικά στο προσκήνιο και συντονίζει προσωπικά την επιχείρηση απεγκλωβισμού, ενορχηστρώνοντας ένα μεγάλο δημοσιογραφικό γεγονός που εξελίσσεται σε καρναβάλι των μίντια.

מוצגת כאן במלוא כיעורה, גם האיש הפשוט מגלה את הפן האכזרי של אישיותו. השערורייה שהתחוללה עם צאת הסרט למסכים כמעט וחיסלה את הקריירה של ויילדר כבמאי קולנוע ומכאן ואילך התמקד יותר בקומדיות מאשר בביקורת חברתית. ולחשוב שהסרט נעשה 50 שנים לפני שמושגים כמו "רייטינג" ו"ריאליטי TV" נכנסו לחיינו.
