About
"Sorkin's backstage romance with television itself"
A veteran producer is fired live on air after a moral meltdown, and the network brings in an old writing partner to save its struggling late-night sketch show. What follows is a fast-talking, idealistic look at the chaos behind live TV: network politics, creative egos, and the grind of producing comedy under pressure. It has Aaron Sorkin's signature rhythm, walk-and-talk dialogue, and earnest speechifying, mixing workplace comedy with romantic drama and occasional lectures about art, censorship, and integrity in entertainment.
the rapid-fire Sorkin dialogue and a cast clearly relishing behind-the-scenes showbiz drama.
you find earnest monologues about the sanctity of television preachy rather than charming.
