Hotel St Francis, San Francisco, September 1921. The principal players – silent movie star Roscoe ‘Fatty’ Arbuckle, actress Virginia Rappe and rabble-rouser Maude Delmont. Room 1219 – a room of secrets. Roscoe Arbuckle – the man who turned slapstick into gold – is at the top of his profession; but a charge of murder sees his world come crashing down. With his future career in tatters, Arbuckle becomes Hollywood’s first fall guy! This is Roscoe Arbuckle’s story – his rise to fame and his shameful downfall at the hands of the public, the press and Hollywood.
