Synopsis

15 years ago Paul Jordan was a star in Hollywood musicals. But then he retired from show-biz, married the rich Joan. Now, after being dependent on his wife's money for many years, he's sick of it and wants to work again. A romantic affair with his stepdaughter Shirley gives him the guts to ask for a role. His former agent gets him one, but it's with a small company in Vienna, Austria. The stress worsens his alcoholism - the tablets he takes to hide the effects lead him to hallucinations. When his wife and girlfriend appear at the same time, he's no longer capable of handling the situation.
