"Unforgettable journey into a long-vanished Hollywood of the l930s--where you travel with three memorable hopefuls as they meet Garbo and Davis and Gable and every other movie immortal!" ~ Publishers Weekly

In l929, MGM desperately needs new matinee idols to replace those destroyed by the talkies. Sexy,frisky Eddie Bostic is hired and becomes an overnight sensation. Not so Sunny St. James who is dropped by the studio because he a sound engineer makes Sunny's voice sound soprano. Mack Johnson is kicked out because he's "better looking than Clark Gable and bigger than Tarzan." And there's room for only one Clark Gable. Before the end of the 30s, though, Sunny has become the star drag queen at the notorious Purple Club and Mack Johnson becomes the legendary Jack Hardon--the phenomenal performer in stag films. Mack becomes the kept boy of Eddie but then discovers the real love of his life--Sunny St. James. The red-hot Eddie Bostic suddenly discovers a problem with keeping his wild and boozy sex life secret hidden from gossip vultures Louella Parsons and Hedda Hopper. When David O. Selznick seeks the stars for his super spectacular, GONE WITH THE WIND, our trio of stunning men realize this is their last chance to finally make it big--or face oblivion. One ends up in the biggest scandal in Hollywood's history, another rises to the top of the film colony's heap and a third seeks oblivion. But at the end, there's a shocking twist of fates that would thrill the heart of any movie buff!
