In the film we kick off with THE JAZZ SINGER which pretty much killing off silent movies and their stars and then we look at a few big folks who didn't make it in the sound era including Clara Bow who would be forced out of movies at the age of 28. We then see how many major players would push for sound only to die before their dreams came to be but we also see Hollywood's new line of stars including Cagney, Robinson, Hepburn and of course Mae West who proved that sex could still sell. The documentary comes to an end just as GONE WITH THE WIND was breaking records and Hitler's impact was about to be felt. The documentary centers more on the stars and the power that they held.
