- Multi-talented, Paul Newman is one of the greatest American actors of all time. With his silhouette of a Greek statue and his unreal blue eyes, he embodied the quintessential Hollywood star. But he never seemed satisfied. The son of a Jewish sporting goods retailer who despises him and a Catholic mother who adores him, driven by self-doubt and an inherited need for approval from his childhood, he has worked throughout his fifty-year career to break the image of the pretty boy. He made his first experiences in the famous Actors Studio. The breakthrough as a screen star came in 1958 with "The Cat on a Hot Tin Roof". From then on he preferred characters on the edge of the American dream. With archive images and film excerpts, the documentary paints a portrait of a socio-politically committed man with many facets and also pays tribute to the role of his wife Joanne Woodward.

Strong women who conquered the night of the city with their charisma and their voices. The performances and the repertoire of Gaby Deslys, Mistinguett, Joséphine Baker, Marianne Oswald and Suzy Solidor illustrate the lifestyle of the Roaring Twenties and Dirty Thirties in Paris like hardly anything else. This documentary is not only a journey back in the history of entertainment, but also a character portrait of female pioneers of feminism and sexual openness with countless old film clips and many unforgettable songs.
