Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaDonald Novis provided David Manners's singing voice. Rudy Vallee was originally considered, but his contract at the time prevented his participation in this film. Having Manners "sing" through a megaphone was a clever way to cover the dubbing.

singer wants to make it big in showbiz
Ken Murray.... started out in a few film roles and tv roles, but quickly moved into a "behind the scenes" role; he ended up filming many of the stars on the sets and about town with their family, kind of an early paparazzi. This one stars David Manners and the band trying to make a go of it in a nightclub, but when they use a megaphone to project his voice, "Ted" (Manners) really takes off as a singer. Guy Kibbee, Claire Dodd, and Anne Dvorak were hollywood regulars in the 1930s and 1940s. pretty good story line. moves along without problems. love story. hollywood. show biz. good film, if a little uneven. Directed by Lloyd Bacon, who had worked at all the various studios. Didn't win any oscars, but sure made some great films along the way (humphrey bogart, bette davis !) this one is a good one.
