Joe Gideon (Roy Scheider) is at the top of the heap, one of the most successful directors and choreographers in musical theatre. But he can feel his world slowly collapsing around him--his obsession with work has almost destroyed his personal life, and only his bottles of pills keep him going. As he struggles to right his relationships with his ex-wife, his lover, and his daughter, he also has to cope with his failing health. Soon it's clear he'll have to make a choice: his art--or his life. A talented director and choreographer of both film and stage, Fosse was perhaps best known for helming the film version of CABARET and creating the musical CHICAGO. [More]

Reviews for All That Jazz
Bob Fosse has choreographed a film with the psychological complexity of Fellini, the audacity of Stanley Kubrick, and the rhythm and verve of—well, of Bob Fosse.
All That Jazz manages an act of alchemy as it exudes the foul miasma of flop sweat at the same time as it showcases Fosse’s consummate cinematic talents.
