Komedie, USA, 1932, 68 min.



Ted Taylor and his band find success after Ted, standing in for an ailing singer, croons through a megaphone, and the band is given a contract by a nightclub. Ted's girl, Judy Mason, brings press agent Peter Sturgis to hear the band. Despite the fact that he thinks Ted has no talent, Peter takes the account and boosts the band's price. Ted wants to marry Judy now that he is earning a good living, but Peter, who is in love with Judy himself, convinces Ted that marriage would not be good for his image. As the band enjoys more success, Ted becomes totally self-absorbed. He instructs the band to play slower so he can show off his voice, but now people cannot dance to the music. Soon he breaks his dates with Judy to take out society women. He pretends to have strained his voice so he can cruise with socialite Mrs. Brown. Judy is furious when she learns of his affair and lectures him severely. Upset by her accusations, Ted gets drunk before his performance. The audience is tired of his draggy rhythms and overblown publicity and heckles him. When Ted picks a fight with one of the hecklers, who turns out to be a crippled war veteran, he loses what remains of his popularity. Some time later, while playing at a small club, he hears an announcement of Judy's engagement to Peter. He telephones Judy, and after realizing that the two still love each other, Peter steps aside.
