Wolf
1994 · TMDB 6.1
Directed by Mike Nichols
Aging publisher Will Randall is at the end of his rope when a younger co-worker snatches his job out from under his nose. But after being bitten by a wolf, Will suddenly finds himself full of youthful vigor. As he struggles to regain his position, he becomes enthralled with Laura Alden, his former boss's daughter. And, as increasingly animal-like urges begin to overwhelm him, Randall worries that he may be turning into the creature that bit him.
Why it matters
Mike Nichols's adult drama stars Jack Nicholson as a book editor whose bite awakens his primal instincts, leading to a midlife crisis and a new lease on life. A sophisticated take on the myth.
