A star-studded, cult favourite thriller movie is on TV tonight

The film comes from the director of Man on Fire and True Romance.

The film tells the story of a star baseball player (Wesley Snipes) who becomes the unhealthy focus of a down-on-his-luck salesman (Robert De Niro).

Directed with flashy style by the great Tony Scott (Man on Fire, True Romance), The Fan also features amongst its cast Benicio Del Toro, Ellen Barkin, Jack Black and John Leguizamo.

And though it was a commercial and critical disappointment upon release, the movie's talented cast and crew and its entertaining sports twist on classic stalker thrillers like Fatal Attraction, The Hand that Rocks the Cradle and Single White Female makes it worth seeking out.

The Fan is airing on TV tonight on the channel Legend at 12.45am.
