1987 film starring Dustin Hoffman and Warren Beatty. It was rumored to cost around $40 million to make and took in half that amount at the box office. It was completely ignored by the Academy but picked up quite a few
Razzie Awards.
The story centers around two lounge singers, Hoffman and Beatty, who are booked in Morocco. Somewhere along the line, they become pawns in an international intrigue between the CIA, the emir of Ishtar, and a group of rebels hoping to overthrow the emir.
