Details

• Release Year: 1955
• Genre: Drama, Music
• Plot: Roaring '20s songstress Ruth Etting had everything - the looks, the wiles, the smokey jazz voice, the it. She also had Chicago racketeer Martin 'The Gimp' Snyder who, even as he propelled her career, afflicted her.; ; Laced with Doris Day's vibrant performances of songs from the era, this 1955 Academy Award® winner (Best Motion Picture Story) is based on the tough-minded tale of Etting's life with the man who boosted her career with strong-arm tactics and smothered her in an obsessive grip she escaped at great peril. As Snyder, James Cagney earned one of the films six Oscar® nominations.* Day's Etting was a career-best dramatic performance, bringing acclaim from critics and protest letters from fans unprepared for the departure from her traditionally sunny roles.; ;
