Summary:
"Director, writer, and actor Jay Chandrasekhar tells the hilarious history of his
comedy
group, Broken Lizard, and the
making
of the 2001 film
Super
Troopers
, as well as the currently filming
Super
Troopers
2. Jay Chandrasekhar has spent the past two decades writing, directing, and acting in film and TV. With his
comedy
group, Broken Lizard, he produced and directed
Super
Troopers
, Beerfest, and Club Dread. Now, Jay tells the ridiculous, madcap, dead-honest story of how he built his career, formed Broken Lizard and made
Super
Troopers
. Jay grew up Indian American in the lily-white suburbs of Chicago, and he had an outsider's perspective from the beginning. Instead of taking the traditional acting path, he formed his own troupe, wrote his own scripts, and made movies his own way. A hilarious story about
making
it in Hollywood."--Provided by publisher.
