Wisecracks -- Film Description:
"A witty 90-minute documentary which explores the world of female comedians on stage and beyond. The well-measured mix of seasoned performers (Phyllis Diller, Whoopi Goldberg, Paula Poundstone, Deborah Theaker and many others), rare archival footage and stunning newcomers elevates stand-up comedy to new heights of wit and wisdom and tells the story of how women really do comedy."
