Synopsis

A hilarious and devastating satire of Hollywood, a microcosm of the macrocosm of American culture. Charlie Fox has discovered a terrific vehicle for a certain hot male movie star, and has brought it to his best friend Bobby Gould, Head of Production for a major film company. Both see the script as their ticket to the really big table, where the real power is. The star wants to do it, and all they have to do is pitch it to their boss.
