This is Hollywood, 1948. You are a beautiful young actress. He is a rich and powerful film producer. He can make you a star or send you back to the sticks, and you have something he wants, right now. What are you willing to do? How much of yourself are you willing to give? Synopsis: Priscilla Preston and her husband Ken are struggling New York actors when Priscilla is picked as the lead in a new picture for Blackwell Studios. Morton Blackwell is the obsessive, despotic, charming monster who tries to control every aspect of his movies and everyone around him. Anna Andrzejewski is a recent immigrant from the ashes of bombed-out Berlin trying to succeed in a Hollywood that may not be ready to accept a blonde, Nordic beauty with a complicated past. Screenwriter/mystery author Lyman becomes involved in the lives and problems of both Priscilla and Anna while he tries to find a reason to live after the death of this wife. Morton takes Priscilla to Hollywood, changes her name to Pamela Carr, and makes her his lover. Husband Kenny Preston is upset and troublesome about the loss of his wife until he conveniently dies from an overdose of booze and pills. But was it an accident, a suicide, or perhaps something else? Anna is just getting started at Blackwell Studios when Morton turns an interview into an attempted rape. Anna's bind: how can she punish him when he controls her future and no one else cares? When a story appears in the tabloid Star hinting that Mort was involved in the death of Ken Preston the same night that he raped Anna, she lies to incriminate him in the death, knowing that his only true alibi is to admit his assault on her. Eventually Lyman discovers the unlikely killer of Kenny Preston, but the world has moved on. Pamela Carr is essentially a #metoo story about the intersection of sex and power and ambition, and the price of success. But it is also about forgiveness and healing and next steps.
