The Carpetbaggers (1964) Trailer

The Carpetbaggers


It is unlikely that you will experience in a lifetime all that you will see in... THE CARPETBAGGERS. 

The Carpetbaggers is a 1964 American film directed by Edward Dmytryk, based upon the best-selling novel The Carpetbaggers by Harold Robbins, and starring George Peppard as Jonas Cord, a character based loosely on Howard Hughes, and Alan Ladd - in his last role - as Nevada Smith, a former western gunslinger turned actor.

Watch the Trailer!



Harold Robbins' tale of the ruthless men and beautiful women who shaped Hollywood. Harold Robbins' best seller about '30s Hollywood comes to the screen in a torrent of frank, controversial and (for the times) sensational scenes that helped break the Production Code.
