В 1913 году работник киностудии Майкл Коннорс увидел в постановке на Бродвее Молли Адэр. Очарованный ее красотой и талантом, он уговаривает ее оставить театр и уехать с ним в Калифорнию, где в то время начинает развиваться киноиндустрия. Став сценаристом и режиссером фильмов с Молли в главной роли, он делает из нее звезду... Сюжет замешан на биографии Макка Сеннетта и Мэйбл Норманд. В фильме снимались в роли самих себя многие звёзды немого кино. В имени главного героя заменили всего две буквы. Изменены названия студий. Скандал с загадочным убийством Уильяма Тейлора заменен на автомобильную катастрофу и по-мелочи. Но много и придуманного. Мэйбл Норманд не была звездой Бродвея и попала в кинематограф без помощи Макка Сеннетта. Макк Сеннетт в фильме встречается со своим «двойником» в молодости. Фантастическая концовка ‒ никакого триумфального прорыва в звуковое кино в реальности не было.

Проходит время водевилей, на смену пришли сначала, движущиеся картинки, а потом и звуковое кино. Водевильные актеры продолжают играть по старинке, но публике нужно другое действо и на смену старшего поколения артистов приходят молодые, вооруженные своими песнями, танцами, взглядами на жизнь, которые не только отодвигают старшее поколение на задворки, но и занимают их место под солнцем. Правда, они не забывают стариков и не говорят: "Уйдите с дороги", а пытаются поддержать родителей. Хотя вопросы, затронутые в мюзикле, вполне злободневны и сегодня, и будут злободневны и завтра. Смена поколений всегда проходит весьма болезненно.
