Glenn Miller Story, The / Benny Goodman Story, The | Icons Of The Silver Screen #3

THE GLENN MILLER STORY - Young musician Glenn Miller (Academy Award winner James Stewart, Vertigo) grew up as a dedicated trombone player who wanted nothing more in life then to achieve greatness. With a philosophy of hard work and determination he set out to make it big in show business, starting up his own band, destined to become one of the most successful and influential groups of the big-band era. With beautiful wife Helen (June Allyson, Little Women) by his side and one of the biggest songs in America, Moonlight Serenade under his belt, it would seem nothing could stand in his way. But when the shadow of World War II loomed, Miller gave up his fame and success to help entertain the troops stationed in Europe. An inspiring biography of unparalleled detail, directed by Anthony Mann (El Cid), The Glenn Miller Story captures the life story of one of entertainments greatest musicians, featuring a soundtrack of arrangements that truly defined an era.\nTHE BENNY GOODMAN STORY - The young Benny Goodman is taught clarinet by a Chicago music professor. He is advised by bandleader Kid Ory to play whichever kind of music he likes best, but to make a living, Benny begins by joining the Ben Pollack traveling band.
