The Iceman Cometh
Drama239 min
In 1912, the broke regulars at the Last Chance Saloon wait for Hickey, the traveling salesman who arrives each year with drinks, jokes, and stories from the road. When he finally shows up, Lee Marvin's Hickey brings something else entirely: a sober demand that everyone abandon the pipe dreams keeping them afloat. Fredric March and Robert Ryan are part of the bar's circle of alcoholics, drifters, and hangers-on as a birthday gathering turns into a reckoning.
