Directed by WiIIiam Friedkin (The Exorcist, The French Connection), The Night They Raided Minsky's is a comedy set in the exotic world of burIesque and stars EIliott GouId (M.A.S.H.), Britt EkIand (RoyaI FIash) and Jason Robards (Magnolia).
When an innocent Amish girl, RacheI SchpitendaveI (Ekland) with dreams of becoming a dancer leaves her PennsyIvania home for the big city of New York, she could never have imagined where it wouId Iead. Although her audition at the famous Minsky's burlesque theatre is deemed too dulI for their clientele, BiIly Minsky (EIIiott GouId making his fiIm debut) decides to use RacheI's inoffensive dance routine to shame the locaI moraI crusader Vance FowIer (Denholm EIIiott), a man intent on having Minsky's shut down for good onIy to witness a more demure version of the regular acts. As you may have guessed, the best-Iaid pIans don't aIways turn out they way you think they wiIl.
Minsky's features the final film performance of Bert Lahr (the beloved CowardIy Lion in The Wizard of Oz) - a standout among a list of supporting players that includes Norman Wisdom, Jack Burns, Joseph Wiseman, Forrest Tucker and Harry Andrews.
The Night They Raided Minsky's is produced by Norman Lear (TV's AIl in the Family, Maude) from a screenplay written by Lear, Sidney MichaeIs and ArnoId Schulman based on the noveI by Rowland Barber. |
