“Saturday Night” runs 1 hour 49 minutes. It’s rated R and directed by Jason Reitman.

Patty gives it a 5 out of 5 stars.

“Over the years I interviewed several of the stars of this series… And it will forever be a part of my life… Because of my memories, but also because it is very well done with the exact amount of irreverence that it demands”, said Patty.
