Being there
(DVD)
Ashby, Hal, film director.
Douglas, Melvyn, actor.
Sellers, Peter, 1925-1980, actor.
MacLaine, Shirley, 1934- actor.
Chance is a pure-hearted gardener forced out of moneyed seclusion and into the urban wilds of Washington, D.C., after the death of his employer. Shocked to discover that the real world doesn't respond to the click of a remote, Chance stumbles haplessly into celebrity after being taken under the wing of a tycoon who mistakes his new protégé's mumbling about horticulture for sagacious pronouncements on life and politics, and whose wife targets Chance as the object of her desire.
