Storyline:Lancaster had earlier played a similar manipulative huckster in the filmThe Rainmaker (1956).The film was very popular and a box-office hit - on a budget of $3 million, it grossed $11.3 million dollars.It was shot in the uncharacteristic and unfashionable aspect ratio of 1.33, in protest to the current prevailing trend for CinemaScope features.The film was nominated for five Academy Awards (including Best Picture and Best Score (Andre Previn)) and won three: Best Actor for Burt Lancaster (his sole Oscar win of four Best Actor nominations), Best Adapted Screenplay (Richard Brooks), and Best Supporting Actress (Shirley Jones with her sole Oscar nomination, known for her squeaky-clean role in TV""sThe Partridge Family).Iranoff: Let""s be honest.Have we anything like it in Russia?...Can you imagine what the beds would be in a hotel like that?However, Buljanoff thinks it would be best for them o live like the common people and go back to their cheaper Hotel Terminus, where the Soviet Russian government had made reservations for them: "We are on an official mission, and we have no right o change the orders of our superiors.She looked in a mirror in vain disgust: "Oh, God, I look 20 years old." She asked Glen questions about dreams foretelling the future, or his belief in the Boogeyman, and then asked him for a favor to help her in an experiment....just one of labor""s millions, building a nation." Tobacco chewing, blue-collar steelworker/riveterSlim Jensen(Karl Dane) works high atop a steel skyscraper.You beat me by one second, one second.That""s very hard for a man of my intelligence to handle...No TV, no newspapers, just you and me...I""m still young enough to whip your butt, Stallion...You fight great, but I""m a great fighter." In their sparring match as they danced around the ring, the camera froze on their first punches aimed at each other (and dissolved into a LeRoy Neiman portrait), and the film concluded with the tune "Eye of the Tiger".
