Tired of churning out fluffy comedies, a Hollywood director decides to write a serious, socially responsible film entitled “O Brother, Where Art Thou?” When his producers point out that he knows nothing of hardship, he hits the road as a hobo with an out-of-work actress. This delightful Sturges comedy is a blend of laughs, drama and Hollywood satire.
