Rollerball (Full Frame, Widescreen)
The year is 2018. There are no wars. There is no crime. There is only...the Game. In a world where ruthless corporations reign supreme, this vicious and barbaric "sport" is the only outlet for the pent-up anger and frustrations of the masses. Tuned to their televisions, the people watch "Rollerball": a brutal mutation of football, motocross and hockey. Jonathan E. (James Caan, "Misery") is the champion player - a man too talented for his own good. The Corporation has taken away the woman Jonathan loves (Maud Adams, "Octopussy") but they can't take away his soul - even if diabolical corporate head (John Houseman, "The Paper Chase") tells him he'd better retire...or suffer the old-fashioned way. With its surrealistic imagery and tense action sequences, "Rollerball" grips you by the heart - and never lets you go!
