A film star helps a young singer and actress find fame, even as age and alcoholism send his own career on a downward spiral.
The film charts the rise of Esther Blodgett (played by Judy Garland) from band singer to Hollywood star. When drunken actor Norman Maine (James Mason) staggers onto the stage during her performance for a crowd of Hollywood elite, she incorporates the intrusion into her act and saves him from further embarrassment. A grateful Maine introduces her to the head of a film studio. Blodgett changes her name to Vicki Lester at the behest of the studio, and, after appearing in a hit musical, her career skyrockets. The two performers fall in love and marry, but their union is tested by Maine’s declining career and chronic alcoholism. Maine, despondent over his career and the pain he has caused Blodgett, eventually drowns himself.
