When a big-budget Hollywood movie crew arrives in a quaint Vermont village--sowing a bumper crop of corruption, vanity and greed--money will change hands, careers will be jeopardized and love will bloom before the first cameras roll. A producer losing money by the day ... a first-time screenwriter trying vainly to maintain his integrity ... a leading lady who does not want to appear nude ... a star with a dangerous predilection for underage girls--in a town full of underage girls. But events spin out of control when the truth is revealed about an accident at the corner of State and Main.

Reviews

Deep Focus Review

Fresh

The film may be the sharpest of all Hollywood satires, a comedy which recognizes the equally chaotic and creative process of filmmaking, while also offering a scathing perspective on a film's behind-the-scenes challenges.

A grand escalation of madness seems to be the idea here, but Mamet has difficulty getting to a point of insanity with a lukewarm sense of humor.

Jonah Koslofsky

Rotten

It's shockingly toothless stuff from the man behind Glengarry Glen Ross - nothing cuts as deep as it should.
