SYNOPSIS:
Helen Morgan has beauty, talent, success. Yet they mean nothing to her without the love of Larry Maddox, the bootlegger who leads Helen on and drops her so often she finally hits bottom. Set in the roaring '20s, The Helen Morgan Story is also Maddox's story. In his fifth film, Paul Newman plays the mobster with slick assuredness.

In her final movie, Ann Blyth portrays the troubled songstress (and Show Boat original cast member), with Gogi Grant performing vocals on signature Morgan tunes. Appearances by '20s icons Rudy Vallee, Walter Winchell and Morgan's real-life accompanist Jimmy McHugh bring bracing authenticity to this tale of a legend whose songs could heal any heart but her own.
