The life of comedienne Fannie Brice, from her early days in the Jewish slums of the Lower East Side, when only her mother believed Fanny could make it in show business, to her hilarious debut as a rollerskating chorus-girl and on to the height of her career as a star with the Ziegfeld Follies.

Certification12 Our Rating
It's the rip-roaring 20s and, in search of a better life, Millie has moved from Kansas to New York, where she befriends young Dorothy and an eccentric old widow, Muzzy. As she tries to sort out her romantic life and marriage prospects little does she realise that girls are being kidnapped from the hotel, where they're staying, in order to be shipped to brothels in China! But of course all's well that ends well.
