In 1948, Nina Weiss, a snobby college girl from Scarsdale, goes to Hollywood to work at her uncle’s movie studio. She’s assigned to help publicize a young actress named Stella Kane. Nina is immediately thrown into the maelstrom of the declining studio system and repressive fifties Hollywood. Adding to her difficulties is her growing attraction to Stella. When a gay actor at the studio is threatened by tabloid exposure, Nina invents a romance between Stella and the actor. The trio becomes hopelessly entangled when the invented romance succeeds beyond anyone’s dreams. This is the “behind-the scenes” story of the trio’s compromises and secrets that still has relevance for today.
