Show Notes
Lorne Michaels finds himself right in the middle of the whirlwind. NBC isn't really expecting this "not ready for prime time" project to take off. With all the chaos leading up to the broadcast, it's natural to wonder if it can actually work, even though we know how it all turns out. LaBelle shines as a remarkable talent, anchoring the film with her warmth, kindness, and hopeful spirit, which makes it hard to fully side with Michaels while also being cautious about him. This tension is crucial for the film to build real suspense and forge a meaningful connection, as LaBelle infuses a touch of humanity into the chaos. The movie can be watched on FlixHQ.
