Project Detail

Speed the Plow

Synopsis

New studio chief Bobby Gould is in the market for a hit to shore up his tenuous position. His colleague Charlie Fox comes to him with a project that he guarantees will snare a star who usually only works for a rival studio. But the pair then get distracted by a bet over which of them can sleep with Fox's secretary Karen, who they've involved in their creative process and has her own industry agenda.
Screen adaptation of David Mamet's iconic play and Hollywood satire.
