Synopsis

When his partner breaks up their act and breaks his heart, Don Hewes refuses to let her know he is hurt. Instead, in a show of bravado, Don bets her that he could turn any lowly chorus girl into a star. Looking around for a victim to prove his point, he picks Hannah Brown and makes her his new "other half".

It's not easy going at first... but Don finally discovers that he's found the perfect girl for a duet that will last forever.
