Prism Entertainment
Directed by Robert Altman
Starring: John Travolta and Tom Conti

Based on the play by Harold Pinter, The Dumb Waiter is set in the basement kitchen of a deserted rooming house, where eccentric hit men Gus (Tom Conti) and Ben (John Travolta) wait impatiently for instructions on their next job. Unfortunately for them, their predicament takes a bizarre turn as unsettling messages are received from the presumably abandoned floors above. Made for television by Altman, the film is true to Pinter’s play and builds to an unpredictable conclusion.
