| Description |
A "comic parable about the end of the world".
A shrewd satire on the ruthless world of Hollywood and the evil men do to each other in the name of buddyhood. Speed-the-Plow is bitter, butchy and brilliant. Gary McDonald, Steve Bisley and Kaarin Fairfax star in this sensational comedy. |
