series Behind the Mask: Bamboozled in Focus
Directed by Elia Kazan | 1957
With Andy Griffith, Patricia Neal, Anthony Franciosa
“Andy Griffith delivers an astonishing, sinister performance... the picture has a sharp, dirty appeal.”
—Dave Kehr, Chicago Reader
Lee dedicated Bamboozled to Budd Schulberg, the writer of this scorchingly funny and remarkably prophetic media satire directed by Elia Kazan. “Lonesome” Rhodes, a boorish but charismatic jailbird (Griffith, in one of his greatest roles), makes the most of a lucky break to rise to televisual fame. On the way he jettisons what little integrity he has, becoming exceedingly rich and politically influential in the process.
