Morning Glory

When a naively innocent, aspiring actress arrives on the Broadway scene, she is taken under the wing of several theater veterans who mentor her to ultimate success. Ada Love, who has renamed herself Eva Lovelace, is a would-be actress trying to crash the New York stage. A wildly optimistic chatterbox full of theatrical mannerisms, her looks, more than her talent, attract the interest of a paternal actor, a philandering producer, and an earnest playwright. Is she destined for stardom or the "casting couch"? Or will she fade after a brief blooming, like so many other "morning glories"?
