Soapdish

1991 · 97 min

A frothy, fast-talking backstage romp where everyone schemes, gossips and overacts with gleeful abandon.

Tagline: All that glitter... All that glamour... All that dirt.
Overview: Celeste Talbert is the star of the long-running soap opera "The Sun Also Sets." With the show's ratings down, Celeste's ruthlessly ambitious co-star, Montana Moorehead, and the show's arrogant producer, David Seton Barnes, plot to aggravate her into leaving the show by bringing back her old flame, Jeffrey Anderson, and hiring her beautiful young niece, Lori Craven.
How it feels: Satirical, campy, absurd and light. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Media, celebrity, betrayal, family
Content: Mild sexual content and language. No violence or gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
