captivate tale of backstabbing behind the curtain . the movie follow the plight of david letterman and jay leno a they struggle for the elusive tonight show spot . letterman lead by his desire for the coveted time slot and leno lead by his agent and little devil on the shoulder and helen kushnick . kathy bates ( kushnick ) be excellent in this movie and alienate herself from such top dog a bob wright and warren littlefield and and howard stringer . towards the end of the film you be so entranced with how she handle every situation from guest booking to delay taping and that you find yourself want more . john michael higgins ( letterman ) play his part to the tee . at time i find myself wonder if he be any relation to the real letterman . i highly recommend this movie to anyone interested in entertainment or the world of corporate negotiation .
