Actors and Sin
1952, English. Directed by Ben Hecht.
What goes on when the greasepaint comes off?
Two-part story--the first is about a washed-up Broadway actor and his tough daughter, who is a bigger star than he is; the second is about a literary agent whose newest client--a nine-year-old boy--is the author of a borderline pornographic book.
