Moon Over Broadway (Full Frame)

Hailed as irresistible by the New York Times, "Moon Over Broadway" is a no-holds barred, behind-the-scenes look at the making of the Broadway comedy, "Moon Over Buffalo," starring TV sensation Carol Burnett. Revealing what really goes on before the curtain comes up, "Moon Over Broadway" celebrates the genius ? and the madness ? that goes into the making of a Broadway show. So unbelievable it has to be true, "Moon Over Broadway" unites a comedy writer struggling with the joke issue, a producer who considers hiring a funny dentist friend to help, an anxious star fretting nervously over her return to the stage and an overly sensitive co-star who struggles with constructive criticism. From its rehearsals and Boston tryout to its Broadway premiere, eminent documentary filmmakers Chris Hegedus and D A Pennebaker ("The War Room") offer up a deliciously intrigue filled plot that out-farces the farce itself.
