Handlung
In der Zeit der Prohibition sieht er Nachtclub-Sänger Joe E. Lewis seine Karriere – und beinahe sein Leben – jäh beendet, als ihm als Rache für seinen Ausstieg aus dem Dienst beim Chicagoer Mafiaboss Georgie Parker die Kehle durchgeschnitten wird. Joe, ein abgehalfterter Alkoholiker, wird von seinem treuen Klavierspieler Austin Mack vor dem Zusammenbruch gerettet und in einen erfolgreichen Stand-up-Comedian verwandelt. Doch Joes Dämonen plagen sein Liebesleben, selbst als er neue Höhen des Erfolgs erreicht.
