Arrogant radio singer Monica Barrett dumps talent agent Pete Garland in favor of conniving society Iawyer Teddy Leeds. Pete is determined to win his client back by making a radio star out of singer Ruth AlIison, who has spent time behind bars. The scheme works, and the charming newcomer instantly wins over the public. She is courted by a IocaI radio station to repIace Monica. But the diva has no intention of giving up her throne without a fight and threatens to expose her rival's prison record to the press.
PopuIar radio singer Frances Langford's film debut in Every Night at Eight (1935) saw her introduce the song "l'm ln the Mood for Love," which became her trademark. Touring with Bob Hope, she entertained our troops during World War ll and her success on the radio, in the movies and on TV continued into the mid-1950s. OriginaIly reIeased as The Hit Parade, l'Il Reach For A Star was the most expensive Republic Pictures production until that time. The amazing taIent roster incIudes CarI Hoff and the Hit Parade Orchestra, Duke EIlington and his band with vocalist Ivie Anderson, and bandIeader Eddy Duchin. |
