Storyline:
At 11:30 pm on October 11, 1975, a ferocious troupe of young comedians and writers changed television - and culture - forever. 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 in real time until we hear those famous words.—Columbia Pictures

This film is awesome. I absolutely loved watching how SNL came to be. I did not know much about the early beginnings so that was really cool. Well done all the way around.
