Movie Details Click Here !Storyline: Why doesn't Jerry Springer make movies. They would be better than this turkey.OH, he did make a movie and someone made a musical...I'd rather watch those than this tripe.This movie TRIES so hard to be hip and funny. But it is NOT. The script falls flatter ten a pancake. They did show the ending script page from Citizen Kane and the word Rosebud on the script page. This is the best part of the movie...THE END.Go rent Road to Sundance (aka R2SD), made about the same time. This movie is a very funny tongue in cheek look at making films. It is from NYC so it had a lot more style and verve. Overnight Sensation seems financed out of Beverly Hill money from the "son" a producer and a chance to make a "movie". Seems there was a plethora of films about going to Sundance. Guess no one had ideas about an original script. Hollywood is really going to have to be careful to whom they rent those Panavision cameras.
