Both Grace Kelly and Bing Crosby won the Best Acting Academy Awards for their performances in this story of a washed up actor/singer trying to make a comeback in a new musical directed by William Holden. Crosby has surrendered all decision making to Kelly and she clashes with Holden, who is trying to give Crosby a chance ans also to stop Crosby's drinking. This is a very serious humorless film that is extremely well acted. It also won other Academy Awards for screenplay ands art direction. From 1954, remade as a TV movie in 1982. Recommended.
