Summary
When talking pictures were first coming to the screen, theater director Rouben Mamoulain shatters the oppressive technical limitations and transforms a backstage melodrama into a stunning cinematic masterpiece. Tells the story of Kitty Darling, a fading burlesque star who tries to save her convent-educated daughter April from following in Mom's footsteps
