Summary:

Small-town lass Winnie Wharton is gifted with a golden voice and gumption to boot. Thanks to the assistance of her streetwise manager, Lucky Lorimer, she rises to the top on Broadway as a torch singer. It's an ascent built from broken dreams, however, as Wini's piano player, Tommy, has fallen for her, but she only has eyes for Lucky. Lucky, in turn, has his heart set on high-society dame Iris Marvin.
