Beskrivelse
A two-year old boy is left on the Tucson, Arizona police station steps with one name, Ben, pinned on his shirt. No one claims him, so the tot goes to live in the county orphanage until he's adopted, at age ten by the elderly, wealthy Arizonian, R. Thomas Mills, and is reared as the man's only son and heir. At age nineteen, the elder Mills dies, and young Ben Mills inherits his adoptive father's twenty-million-dollar estate. He promises R. Thomas Mills, on the old man's death bed, that he'll care for and tend to the needs of his alcoholic, adoptive mother and his older, irresponsible, and promiscuous half sister, Helen. That promise turns out to be a far greater challenge than Ben even dreams could be possible. Ben accompanies his sister to Hollywood, posing as her brother, when, in reality, he's her newly wedded husband. There, in that Emerald City of Tinsel-town, Ben is continuously picking Helen up, dusting her off, and encouraging her to begin anew, until at last, Helen becomes a Hollywood movie star. Just when her future looks brightest, disaster strikes Helen, and the climatic results are almost too devastating to endure!
