Helen Morgan has beauty, talent, success. Yet they mean nothing to her without the love of Larry Maddux, the bootlegger who leads Helen on and drops her so often she finalIy hits bottom. Set in the roaring ’20s, The Helen Morgan Story is also Maddux’s story. ln his fifth fiIm, Paul Newman pIays the mobster with slick assuredness. In her final movie, Ann Blyth portrays the troubled songstress (and Show Boat original cast member), with Gogi Grant performing vocaIs on signature Morgan tunes. Appearances by ’20s icons Rudy Vallee, Walter WincheII and Morgan’s real-life accompanist Jimmy McHugh bring bracing authenticity to this taIe of a Iegend whose songs couId heaI any heart but her own. |
