  • Log in or register to post comments

In the dizzying world of 1950s rock and roll, an attractive and charismatic girl, played by the dazzling Jayne Mansfield, becomes the center of attention when her clumsy yet enthusiastic manager fiancé decides to turn her into a star. However, the young woman's beauty isn’t enough to steer her career, as complications arise when a famous singer falls in love with her, igniting jealousy and hurdles in the path to fame. Meanwhile, the manager faces the pressure of launching his sweet fiancée into stardom while grappling with his own ineptitude and the fierce competition of the music world.

The tale exudes an air of optimism and fun, intertwined with energetic musical numbers featuring rock icons like Little Richard and Fats Domino, who bring their contagious energy. With its lighthearted humor and critique of the superficiality of the music industry, the plot unfolds in a tapestry of glamour, comedy, and melodrama. In the end, the young woman must choose between true love and the pursuit of fame, while the audience enjoys the blend of catchy rhythms and cinematic charisma. The film is an explosion of color and vibes from the 1950s, leaving an indelible mark on pop culture, reflecting the spirit of an era where rhythm and emotions defined the pace of life.
