Official Trailer for 'Mad About the Boy: The Noel Coward Story' Doc

"Why did this astonishing man end his life exiled from the country he came to define?" Quite a question to ask. Greenwich Ent. has revealed an official US trailer for a UK documentary titled Mad About the Boy: The Noel Coward Story, arriving in the US this October. (Mad About the Boy is also the title of the next Bridget Jones film due out in 2025.) It already opened in the UK last year and is just now making its way to the US for those curious about the story of this enigmatic man. It tells the story of the extraordinary life of playwright, singer, actor, composer, director Noël Coward, who rose from poverty to stardom performing on Broadway and beyond, keeping his queer sexuality a secret. "He defined an era & led an extraordinary life." Featuring Laurence Olivier, Maggie Smith, Frank Sinatra, Michael Caine and Lucille Ball as special guests. With narration by Alan Cumming + with Rupert Everett as the voice of Noël Coward. Reviews praise the doc: "The tale of how a boy who left school at nine and had no musical training yet became one of the world’s most prolific playwrights and composers undoubtedly has something fantastical about it."
