Silent film star Billy Bright (Dick Van Dyke, Night at the Museum) was a legend on the silver screen, but he also had a legendary ego, one that ruined his career. Dealing with womanizing, alcoholism and professional squabbles, Billy is unable to see the real source of his problems — himself. From director Carl Reiner (The Jerk) comes a film mixed with slapstick laughs and great performances from Michele Lee (TV's "Knots Landing"), Mickey Rooney (Breakfast at Tiffany's) and Cornel Wilde (A Song to Remember). Newly remastered.
