FULL SYNOPSIS

Bette Midler's wildly funny and theatrical stage show is preserved on the big screen in this concert film shot in California in 1980. Along with her usual raunchy comedy material and over-the-top staging, Midler performs some of her best known songs (including "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" and "Chapel of Love") along with Bruce Springsteen's "E Street Shuffle," om Waits' "Shiver Me Timbers," and the Faces' "Stay With Me." ~ Mark Deming, Rovi
