In the 1979 musical film All That Jazz, directed by American director Bob Fosse who passed away in 1987, we follow the successful career and womanizing ways of a Broadway director. The film was nominated for five Oscars and won four. Starring the late American actor Roy Scheider, alongside Oscar-winning actresses Jessica Lange, Ann Reinking, Leland Palmer, Irene Kane, Deroba Geffner, and Ben Vereen, the story revolves around Joe Gideon, a music director, choreographer, and writer who is at the top of his game on Broadway.
