Summary

Roaring '20s songstress Ruth Etting had everything, the looks, the wiles, the smokey jazz voice, the it. She also had Chicago racketeer Martin 'The Gimp' Snyder, who, even as he propelled her career, afflicted her. Laced with Doris Day's vibrant performance of songs from the era [the film] is based on the tough-minded tale of Etting's life with the man who boosted her career with strong-arm tactics and smothered her in an obsessive grip she escaped at great peril
