A small-time showbiz agent tries to resurrect the career of an over-the-hill Italian singer by getting him a show in front of Broadway legend Milton Berle. The married singer can only perform if his mistress is in the audience, so the agent must pose as her boyfriend - getting him in trouble with the Mafia. Comedy, directed by and starring Woody Allen. With Mia Farrow, Nick Apollo Forte and Berle as himself.

A hapless talent manager named Danny Rose, by helping a client, gets dragged into a love triangle involving the mob.

Rose's one-man talent agency represents countless incompetent entertainers, including a one-legged tap dancer, and one slightly talented one: washed-up lounge singer Lou Canova, whose career is on the rebound.
