Alec Baldwin and Anne Heche starred on Broadway in this hilarious adaptation of the classic comedy by Ben Hecht and Charles McArthur, directed on Broadway by Walter Bobbie.
Bankrupt, with his career on a downslide, egomaniacal Broadway director Oscar Jaffe boards the Twentieth Century Limited and encounters Lily Garland, the chorus girl he transformed into a leading lady but who has now become a temperamental Hollywood star. He'll do anything to get her back under contract and back in his bed, but his former protégé will have nothing to do with him. the action takes place on board the legendary Twentieth Century from Chicago to New York City where Oscar has 20 hours to persuade Lily to return to Broadway in his upcoming show.If he fails, it's the end of the line. The New Yorker called it "A thrilling funhouse ride!" Directed by Jenn Shea.
