On October 11, 1975 at 11:30 p.m., a wild group of young comedians and writers changed television forever. Directed by Jason Reitman and written by Gil Kenan & Reitman, Saturday Night is based on a true story that happened backstage during the 90 minutes before Saturday Night Live premiered. Filled with humor, mayhem and the magic of a revolution that almost wasn’t, we’re counting down the minutes in real time to the famous words: “Live from New York, it’s Saturday night!”
