Speed-the-Plow
A newly promoted studio head and the friend who has brought him a prison picture with a star attached have a day to get it green-lit and agree how to split the proceeds. A temporary secretary, handed an unreadable novel about radiation to write a courtesy report on, comes back the next morning having believed it. Madonna played the secretary on Broadway, and the casting turned into the argument the piece was already having with itself.
