Description: Adapted from play by Ben Hecht and Charles MacArthur based on original play by Charles Bruce Milholland. Alec Baldwin and Anne Heche starred on Broadway in this hilarious adaptation of the much-loved play about Oscar Jaffe, the egomaniacal Broadway director, and Lily Garland, the chorus girl he transformed into a leading lady. Bankrupt, with his career on a downslide, Oscar boards the Twentieth Century Limited and encounters Lily, now a tempermental Hollywood star, on the train. He pulls out all the stops to persuade her to return to Broadway in his upcoming show.
