Povzetek:


Glazbena melodrama temelji se na istinitoj životnoj priči američke pjevačice Helen Morgan i prati njezin glazbeni uspon dvadesetih godina prošlog stoljeća i karijeru na Broadwayu, koju je uništilo previše alkohola i ljubavnih veza s pogrešnim muškarcima.
Glazbena melodrama temelji se na istinitoj životnoj priči američke pjevačice Helen Morgan i prati njezin glazbeni uspon dvadesetih godina prošlog stoljeća i karijeru na Broadwayu, koju je uništilo previše alkohola i ljubavnih veza s pogrešnim muškarcima.

U velikoj želji da postane pjevačica Helen Morgan (Ann Blyth) nastupa u jeftinim karnevalskim točkama. Njezin dar zamjećuje spretni prevarant Larry Maddux (Paul Newman) koji joj pomaže u stvaranju karijere ali je i koristi za vlastite interese. Helen se zaljubljuje u njega, a on se, iako nije ravnodušan, odbija ozbiljnije vezati. Razočarana Helen zagleda se u uspješnog ali oženjenog odvjetnika Russella Wadea (Richard Carrlson) koji joj uzvraća simpatije i na Madduxov nagovor pristaje tajno financirati Helenin noćni klub. Helenina karijera vrtoglavo raste kada dobije glavnu ulogu u Ziegfeldovom Broadwayskom hitu Show Boat. Međutim, kada Helen shvati da je Maddux iskorištava, a Wade se nikada neće rastati od žene, odaje se alkoholu...



Ann Blyth plays famed "torch singer" Helen Morgan, from her humble beginnings as a carnival dancer to the height of her nightclub fame in the 1920s. Helen spends most of her spare time anguishing over the on-and-off affections of her boorish boyfriend (Paul Newman), who had discovered Helen during her carnival days and promoted her to stardom. By 1927, Helen is headlining in her own nightclub, with further fame and fortune greeting her when she is cast as Julie in the blockbusting Broadway hit Show Boat. But when she realizes that her erstwhile boyfriend has been using her as a "meal ticket", Helen turns to drink. Losing her fortune to Revenue agents and the Stock Market crash of 1929, Helen hits rock bottom, ending up in the Bellevue alcoholic ward. Her boyfriend suddenly has a change of heart and declares his love for Helen, arranging for a lavish testimonial in her honor, hosted by Walter Winchell. The film ends at this point, suggesting that Helen Morgan is on the road to lasting
