The Carpetbaggers

In the mid-1920s, having inherited his father's chemical concern, ambitious entrepreneur Jonas Cord (George Peppard) shows his predatory instincts in the boardroom and the bedroom, determined to expand his influence into the still-young film industry. Edward Dmytryk's take on the steamy Harold Robbins roman à clef co-stars Carroll Baker, Bob Cummings, Lew Ayres, and, in his screen farewell, Alan Ladd as Nevada Smith. 150 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtracks: English DTS 5.1, DTS Lossless stereo; Subtitles: English; audio commentary; theatrical trailer.
