Saturday Night
At 11:30pm on October 11, 1975, a ferocious troupe of young comedians and writers changed television – and culture – forever. Directed by Jason Reitman, written by Gil Kenan & Reitman and told in real time, Saturday Night is based on the true story of what happened behind the scenes in the 90 minutes leading up to the first broadcast of Saturday Night Live. Full of humor, chaos, and the magic of a revolution that almost wasn’t, we count down the minutes until we hear those famous words…
“It’s a wildly entertaining love letter to a night of television that marked a cultural watershed.” ~Maureen Lee Lenker, Entertainment Weekly
“An ultimately satisfying showbiz romp with equal parts comedy and drama that is full of effervescent life, outstanding performances, and a wealth of laugh-out-loud moments.” ~Ethan Anderton, Slashfilm
“Saturday Night might not be factually accurate, but it feels spiritually true.” ~Bilge Ebiri, New York Magazine
