Unscripted (2005)
Three young, struggling actors (played by three young, less-struggling actors) try to navigate the maze of agents, auditions and avarice that is Hollywood, frequently turning to their acting teacher for advice. As the title implies, the dialogue is mostly improvised, with situations based on the lives of the cast and creators.
