FARCE. At this low-budget film shoot, the director has no vision for the film, the boom-mic guy keeps falling asleep, the assistant has a tendency to panic, and the script is absolutely horrible. The director tries to salvage the film by forcing two wannabe method actors to rehearse their lines as a nerd and Valley Girl and then as a monkey and a parrot. When this doesn’t work, the actors assume the roles of a boy band singer and an opera diva and sing their lines!
