The Debut

Synopsis

When Mona Friedman is cast in a bit part at a small community theater, she transforms from a shy, unassuming housewife into a zealous method actor willing to do anything to protect the artistic integrity of her marginal role - even if it means waging war against the show’s domineering director. A magnificent Julianne Moore stars alongside Paul Giamatti in a brilliant and moving comedy - a powerful story of rebirth and self-discovery through the magic of art and performance.
