Shows · Stars in Your Eyes

A left-wing screenwriter in Hollywood clashes with the crass studio system when she tries to make socially conscious films. She falls for a handsome leading man while battling studio executives who want to turn her serious script into mindless entertainment, satirizing the film industry's tension between art and commerce.
