    We meet Molly Adair (Faye) in 1913, toiling as a stage actress in New York City, when she's discovered by an ambitious young director (Oscar Winner Don Ameche) who aspires to make it big in the fledgling motion picture business. As the years pass, and Molly's star continues to rise, we experience first-hand what gave silent films their magic and mystique - from slapstick comedies, to custard pies, Keystone Kops, bathing beauties, all the way to the iconic "talkie" The Jazz Singer, which signaled the end of the silent era and forever changed the way the world watches movies!
