Storyline : Encomium to Larry Hart (1895-1943), seen through the fictive
eyes of his song-writing partner, Richard Rodgers (1902-1979): from their
first meeting, through lean years and their breakthrough, to their successes
on Broadway, London, and Hollywood. We see the fruits of Hart and Rodgers'
collaboration - elaborately staged numbers from their plays, characters'
visits to night clubs, and impromptu performances at parties. We also see
Larry's scattered approach to life, his failed love with Peggy McNeil, his
unhappiness, and Richard's successful wooing of Dorothy Feiner. {full_page}
