Movie Summary
Actor Henry Adler (Tom McCamus) has a tenuous hold on his identity in Canadian director David Wellingtons I Love a Man in Uniform. On his way to audition for a violent TV police show, he sees an officer shot in the line of duty. Using what he witnessed in his tryout, he impresses the casting director and gets the role of a tough street cop. But its more than just a part for him: he takes his uniform home, goes out on the street, and gets mistaken for a real cop. Like Anthony John in A Double Life, he has become his character, and like Travis Bickle in Taxi Driver, he wants to clean the world of its filth. This film is not merely an exploration of one mans descent into madness; it is also an indictment of societys confusion of televised fiction with real life. ~ Steve Press, All Movie Guide
