If Carol Channing didn't exist, no one could have made her up. One in a billion, Carol, at 89, remains an unstoppable, megawatt dynamo. Broadway diva extraordinaire is just the icing. Carol Channing hovered at the pinnacle of the entertainment world from the late-1950's through the 1960's and beyond, living life sensationally large. As Carol has observed, '...if you're lucky enough to have two hit shows, the world passes through your dressing room'. At 89, she remains irrepressible. Carol Channing's life story is as colorful as the lipstick on her big, bright smile. This inspirational film captures the 90-year-old icon's magic and vivacity both onstage and off, past and present.
