Продюсеры
Choreographer
Нью-Йорк, 1959 год. Театральный продюсер Макс Бялысток, чье имя всего несколько лет назад гремело по всему миру и являлось синонимом успеха, погряз в неудачах и провалах, которые следуют один за другим. Но случай сводит его с бывшим финансовым директором Лео Блумом, и они тут же изобретают «схему» — брать кредит под постановку заведомо провального шоу и присваивать непотраченное. И вот первый проект — «Молодые годы Адольфа Гитлера» в литературной обработке бывшего нациста Франца Либкина, режиссером которого будет богемный Роджер де Бри с постаревшей шведской секс-бомбой Уллой в главной роли. Осталось только дождаться реакции зрителей…
