HIFF32: SATURDAY NIGHT

–

Spotlight Screening of
SATURDAY NIGHT

Narrative Feature | USA | 2024 | English | 104 minutes

At 11:30pm on October 11, 1975, a ferocious troupe of young comedians and writers changed television and culture forever. Academy Award®-nominated writer-director Jason Reitman (JUNO, UP IN THE AIR) and co-writer Gil Kenan bring to life the true story of what happened behind the scenes in the 90 minutes leading up to the first broadcast of Saturday Night Live. Brimming with the humor and chaos of a revolution that almost wasn’t, SATURDAY NIGHT features a brilliant ensemble cast that embodies the frenetic magic of counting down the minutes in real time until those famous words were first spoken… (Note: the screening on 10/11 is the 49th anniversary of that fateful night.) A Sony Pictures release.
