Because of Him

Synopsis

Musical romantic comedy starring Deanna Durbin as Kim Walker, an aspiring actress determined to ingratiate herself with Broadway producer Sheridan (Charles Laughton). Impressed by the young woman in more ways than one, Sheridan agrees, but the playwright he approaches to write a play for Kim, Paul Taylor (Franchot Tone) is more sceptical. However, Kim's plethora of charms soon wins Taylor over, leaving Sheridan, who had his eye on her from the outset, out in the cold.
