Ace in the Hole (1951)Director: Billy Wilder
Writers: Billy Wilder, Lesser Samuels and Walter Newman
Starring: Kirk Douglas as Charles "Chuck" Tatum and Jan Sterlin as Lorraine Minosa
Description: Charles Tatum, a down-on-his-luck reporter, takes a job with a small New Mexico newspaper. The job is pretty boring until he finds a man trapped in a mine. He jumps at the chance to make a name for himself by taking over and prolonging the rescue effort, and feeding stories to major newspapers. He creates a national media sensation and milks it for all it is worth.
