Synopsis

It’s 1929 as The Jazz Singer hits the silver screen and the talkies promise to change movies forever.  Enter three down-and-out vaudevillians who hatch a hare-brained scheme to “make it big” in Tinsel Town. Their plan?  To open a voice academy for the witless stars of silent movies.  The only things standing in their way are ditzy starlets and power-hungry movie moguls.  Starring Ed Asner and directed by Moss Hart’s son, this is top-of-the-bill screwball comedy and Kaufman and Hart genius at its very bestAn L.A.
