Show Notes

Joe’s body reaches its breaking point, and he’s forced to film the last few scenes from a wheelchair.  But when production wraps, Fox installs a new studio head, Darryl F. Zanuck, who undercuts Joe’s authority and takes over the edit of Cleopatra.  Soon, Joe and Zanuck wage a very public battle for control of the movie, just months before it’s finally released.
