Rating:  - Was It Worth The Struggle?
Anthony Franciosa stars as a young actor who goes to New York with big dreams and, of course, finds that it's a lot harder to make it on the stage than he realized. Dean Martin co-stars as his director/buddy, Shirley MacLaine is the alcoholic daughter of a famed Broadway producer with whom both men get involved, and Carolyn Jones is a former actress turned successful agent. There's nothing in this material that is original or especially fresh, since it follows a basic plotline we've seen before. ... Read More
Rating: - The Great and Underrated Dean Martin Steals the Show
Interesting movie, lags in parts, Franciosa is a bit over the top. Shirley MacLaine and Carolyn Jones are great, but it is Dean Martin in a supporting role (albeit with top billing) who gives a really thoughtful performance as small-time stage director and rat, Maury Novak.
Rating:  - Excellent portrait of a man seeking a goal, no matter what !
I related to this movie because I'm a musician. The movie takes through the life of a young man who loses everything in search of stardom. But when he finally attains it, to him, it was worth it...great movie, and I haven't seen it in 20 years. even though I'm not a Tony Franciosa fan, his performance is on the money. Carolyn Jones is a stand out as the lonely talent agent and Franciosa's only true friend. See it!
