In the world of film and theatre, few reputations are more bitterly contested than that of Lee Strasberg, creator of method acting. To his champions, he created a new, vibrant acting style that shaped the careers of Paul Newman, James Dean, Marion Brando and Al Pacino, among others. To his critics, he manipulated emotionally vulnerable stars like Marilyn Monroe. Al Pacino, Harvey Keitel, Sally Reid, Martin Landau, Ben Gazzara and Eli Wallach are among the actors who contribute to the story of one of Hollywood's most influential men.
