Movie #2075 "Bathtubs Over Broadway" (Netflix streaming) Looking for an unusual documentary to stream on Netflix? Check out this one --- it focuses on a late night comedy writer who comes across a little known corner in the history of Broadway musicals --- the industrial, workplace musical --- The synopsis is below, but my immediate reaction was: hmmmm, this looks interesting. But I have to say, it started a bit slow and quite documentary-ish; then, about halfway through, it took a turn and it became more about what musicals do for people, and then it takes off from there and becomes wonderfully entertaining. I don't know how else to explain it, but we really liked it and recommend it. 4
