Movie Details Click Here!Storyline: Early twenty-something innocent Heather Halloran has always been pushed by her stage mother, Louise Halloran, to be a professional singer, despite Heather not wanting that as a career and having only modest talent as a singer.

Through her dealings with Harlan and the serious pursuit of that musical career, Heather embarks on trial relationships with three men who have doggedly pursued her: Dick Bender, a childhood friend and longtime neighbor who has been around the block a few times; Pat Murad, her arranger and singing coach, who is a bit of a lush; and Hank Judson, a shoe salesman and struggling actor, who specializes in overly dramatic death scenes.
