Broadway Danny Rose is a comedy film from 1984 directed by Woody Allen, who also stars as the titular character. The movie follows the life of Danny Rose, a small-time talent manager who is struggling to make ends meet. Danny represents many of the worst acts in show business, such as a one-legged tap dancer and a stuttering ventriloquist, and together they tour the cheapest and shadiest venues across the city. However, Danny is a devoted and caring manager who believes in the talent of his clients, and he goes to great lengths to promote their shows and get them recognized.

One of Danny's clients is Lou Canova, a washed-up lounge singer who once had a hit song and is now plagued by personal problems. Lou's girlfriend Tina Vitale, who also happens to be Danny's former flame, convinces Danny to help Lou revive his career by booking him a gig at a nightclub.

However, things take a drastic turn when Lou's estranged wife arrives at the nightclub and chaos ensues. Danny finds himself caught in the middle of a dangerous situation, and he has to use all of his wit and charm to get everyone out of harm's way.

As the movie progresses, we see Danny trying to navigate the dangerous waters of show business, dealing with eccentric clients and trying to stay one step ahead of his rivals. The story is woven with humor, and it's impossible not to laugh at Woody Allen's witty dialogue and the awkward situations his character finds himself in.

The performances in the movie are top-notch, with Woody Allen showcasing his comedic talent in his portrayal of Danny Rose. Mia Farrow, who was then Allen's girlfriend, gives a strong performance as Tina Vitale, a character who is both charming and unpredictable.

Nick Apollo Forte, who plays Lou Canova, delivers a captivating performance, particularly during his musical numbers, which are both funny and heartwarming.

The movie is set in the 1950s and features a black and white film style that adds a nostalgic touch to the story. The soundtrack is also noteworthy with classic jazz tunes and the original song "Agita" performed by Nick Apollo Forte.

Broadway Danny Rose is a comedy that will leave you laughing out loud, but it's also a heartfelt story about the struggles and sacrifices made by people in the entertainment industry.
