The Comeback Trail is a 1982 film directed by Harry Hurwitz. It stars Chuck McCann and, in his final screen role, Buster Crabbe. It was filmed in 1974.[1] A remake of the film premiered in 2020.
The film features several cameos of people playing themselves, such as Hugh Hefner, Henny Youngman and Irwin Corey.[1]
Two down-on-their-luck film producers, Eastman and Kodac, decide to make a Western film with Duke Montana, a veteran cowboy star, in hopes that he will die and they will collect the insurance money.
