We rarely recognize when history is being made, when one generation takes the wheel and drives culture in a new direction.
Fifty years ago, a group of young comedians started a live sketch show that would replace cornball burlesque humor on TV with rebellious satire.
Jason Reitman is the director and co-writer of a new film called Saturday Night that follows the chaotic 90 minutes before Saturday Night Live launched in 1975, changing comedy forever.
Jason is the son of director Ivan Reitman who used so many SNL stars in his films like Ghostbusters and Animal House.
