Interviews with comedy legend Rob Reiner, Emmy winning costume designer Bob Mackie, famed author and critic Rex Reed, Tony Award winner Kristin Chenowith, director/choreographer Tony Charmoli, Gaynor herself, and more are inter-cut with footage of the longtime entertainer's most memorable performances from stage and screen. A conversation with Tony Award-nominee Kelli O'Hara highlights the ways in which Gaynor's unforgettable performance in South Pacific influenced her own take on the character of Nellie Forbush in the 2008 Tony Award-winning version of the classic Rodgers and Hammerstein production. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
