Broomfield’s behind-the-scenes document of the making of a musical becomes a ceremonious unmaking-of as egos, budgets and general calamity conspire to ruin the best efforts of all involved in the New York rehearsals for an extravagant, glitzy production.

Chisum -- John Wayne heads a colorful cast in the epic tale of a legendary rancher who built an empire and has to face off with a civilized, smooth-talking land grabber to protect his spread.

Both uproariously funny and unerringly cautionary, Broomfield's behind-the-scenes document of the making of a musical becomes a ceremonious unmaking-of as egos, budgets and general calamity conspire to ruin the best efforts of all involved in the New York rehearsals for an extravagant, glitzy production.

The sequel to the original Flipper movie, which spawned the hit TV series. On a remote island, a boy and his dolphin foil a group of escaped convicts who hold a wealthy British family hostage. Filmed on location in the Bahamas, this fun-filled family adventure stars Luke Halpin ("Flipper," "Peter Pan") and Pamela Franklin ("The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie").
