Synopsis

Of Norman Mailer’s few excursions into filmmaking, Maidstone is his most memorable. Filmed in a mock-verite style, Mailer plays Norman T. Kingsley, an art-house director working on a production in the Hamptons. He is also being considered as a Presidential candidate, prompting reporters, delegates, and his violent brother (Rip Torn) to interrupt the already frenzied show. If you’ve been longing to see Rip Torn attack a legendary American writer with a hammer, Maidstone was made for you. “A sometimes hilarious, often boring but always adventurous ego trip” (Vincent Canby, The New York Times).
