Synopsis
A loving, fan-friendly portrait of the one, the only Liza (“with a Z”) Minnelli celebrates one of America’s all-time-greatest entertainers, a showbiz kid whose storied life and career reached dizzying heights and survived crushing lows all to become… a most iconic icon.
Director Bruce David Klein touches on her complicated family life (as the daughter of two Hollywood legends, Judy Garland and Vincente Minnelli). “I was born, and they took a picture,” Liza once famously said. LIZA: A Truly Terrific Absolutely True Story snaps into focus the dazzling, complex period of Liza’s life in the 1970s, just after the tragic death of her mother—as Liza confronts a range of personal and professional challenges on the way to becoming a bonafide legend.
