Her girl-next-door looks combined with a sultry singing voice made Alice Faye
one of Hollywood’s biggest stars in the Golden Age of Cinema.
It’s the
gay 90’s and headliner Lillian Russell (Alice Faye) is unstoppable! Called, "The
English Ballad Singer" her beauty, charm and unforgettable voice packed
playhouses everywhere. Offstage, she was equally amazing with an extravagant
lifestyle that included four husbands, a jewel-studded bicycle and a wardrobe
filled with furs, jewels, gowns and diamond-decorated corsets.
As Russell, Faye
breathes life into this glamorous icon singing old standards such as, "After the
Ball" and new songs including, "Blue Love Bird." One of Faye’s best dramatic
roles; she stars with actors Don Ameche, Henry Fonda and Edward Arnold.
