Topsy-Turvy
Butt
Drama musical ambientado en el siglo XIX. Narra la rivalidad entre dos artistas londinenses: Gilbert y Sullivan, guionista y compositor respectivamente. Gilbert (Broadbent) es un auténtico caballero. Sullivan (Corduner), en cambio, es casi un libertino. Durante años, los dos trabajaron juntos deleitando al público con sus populares óperas cómicas. Pero, en 1884, al no contar su última obra con el apoyo de la crítica, las diferencias entre ellos salieron a flote. Sullivan quiso dejar a Gilbert para componer música más seria; pero ambos estaban obligados contractualmente a hacer un nuevo trabajo. (FILMAFFINITY)
