Synopsis
The style and sensibility of 1950s Technicolor musicals are celebrated in director Robert Cary's contemporary romance. Billie Golden (Isabel Rose) is a young woman infatuated with the glamour of an era long past. Dressed to the nines, Billie envisions herself singing in plush nightclubs amidst the sparkle of champagne. A run-in with a high school heartthrob (Cameron Bancroft) sweeps her off her feet, but when she meets a jaded pianist (Andrew McCarthy) she becomes caught between choosing the life she wants and the dreams she can't live without.
