Description
Leather jackets, motorcycles, alcohol, drugs, method actors and perfumed actresses test Prettyboy. Marilyn Monroe, James Dean and Marlon Brando antagonize him. Prettyboy weaves a path around betrayal, survival, and complex relationships in Hollywood during 1954. Prettyboy: Fabulous Fifties Hollywood is a thoughtful character-driven romantic comedy, swelling with melodrama and sincerity. Brando's masculinity, Monroe's beauty and Dean's mischief cut to the chase. Liz Taylor, Frank Sinatra, Judy Garland, Grace Kelly and other narcissistic movie stars put demands on Prettyboy. Will he succumb to their desires? Can't stop the rebellion and can't stop the magic. Delicious Monroe, confident Brando and delirious Dean, they are alive and full of crazy. The Blonde Bombshell, the Renegade and the Rebel form a triangle that shakes up Hollywood and change society. They impress those who know them by way of method acting, eccentric lifestyles, amazing veneers and outrageous celebrity. Prettyboy is caught in the middle of this triangle, and he's determined to survive.
