Broadway Danny Rose

Nominated for two Academy Awards (Best Director, Best Original Screenplay), Broadway Danny Rose is a wickedly funny and irreverent tribute to the zany world of the New York lounge acts. A delectable combination of dry wit, hilarious slapstick and biting philosophical subtext, Woody Allen's Broadway Danny Rose is tender, poignant, wistful, marvellous and one of the director's very best.

Saddled with piano-playing parrotts, one-legged tap dancers and stuttering ventriloquists, Danny Rose (Woody Allen) is the all-time loser of showbiz agents - until a sudden nostalgia craze lands his top act, scheming crooner Lou Canova, a coveted gig at the Waldorf. But when Lou refuses to go unless Danny escorts Lou's Mafia-moll mistress Tina (Mia Farrow) to the concert, the stage is soon set for disaster. Taken with Tina, taken in by Lou, and even taken hostage by gangsters, Danny embarks on a hilarious and bittersweet adventure in his desperate bid to ensure that the show does go on... before it's curtains for more than his career!
