Los peligros de la gloria (1937)
Terry Rooney (Cagney), líder de una banda de música de Nueva York, se marcha a Hollywood, donde le han ofrecido un contrato para hacer una película. Allí descubre los entresijos de cómo se moldea a los actores, de cómo se les maneja. Sin embargo, Terry no puede soportarlo y huye con su mujer, Riota. El productor de la película no presta importancia al hecho hasta que la película es estrenada y tiene un éxito absoluto. En poco tiempo, Terry se convierte en una estrella, pero eso también le traerá problemas, sobre todo en el plano personal.
Directora: Victor Schertzinger
