Watchlist:

Ivan Beckman, Hollywood's most sought-after talent agent, the darling and crown prince of La La Land, is dead. How and why did it happen? Was it drugs, murder, or perhaps something altogether more mundane? We begin with an ending and then catapult back a number of days to the apex of Ivan's brilliant career as he bags international megastar Don West onto his company's books. We then follow Ivan through the highs, lows, and extreme excesses of his final days.

Why you might like this:

Fans of director Bernard Rose's unique visual style and character-driven narratives will particularly appreciate Ivansxtc, his 2000 drama exploring the excesses of Hollywood through the lens of a high-powered talent agent's final days. Danny Huston's riveting lead performance anchors this darkly compelling story.
