Star!

Julie Andrews stars as British stage legend Gertrude Lawrence, a glamorous, flamboyant and charismatic personality. A woman who is both "maddening and infuriating" and "probably the most beautiful and entrancing creature ever to walk onto a stage." Robert Wise's lavish musical recalls the golden era of musical theatre, from 1912 to 1940. Lawrence rise from irrepressible chorus girl in English music halls to become the toast of two continents. Her lifelong friend Noel Coward provides witty commentary as Gertie finds company in a number of suitors, in search of a love to equal that of an audience. (official distributor synopsis)
