You Can't Have Everything

Interested in struggling playwright Judith Poe Wells (Alice Faye) for other than her dubious dramaturgy skills, Broadway power broker George Macrae (Don Ameche) cons producer Sam Gordon (Charles Winninger) into optioning her awful script. Although Sam’s hoping for a happy ending out of the deal, his jealous girlfriend (Gypsy Rose Lee, in her film debut) is calling for a rewrite! Tune-filled charmer co-stars the Ritz Brothers, Arthur Treacher, Tony Martin; score includes "Please Pardon Us, We're in Love" and the title tune. 100 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono.
