 Stand-In featuring Leslie Howard & Joan Blondell on ARTISTdirect   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
He befriends Joan Blondell, a former child star now working as a stand-in for haughty movie queen Marla Shelton, and perpetually soused producer Humphrey Bogart.
While his business sense tells him that this is the next logical move, Howard has fallen in love with Blondell; thus, he gives Bogart 48 hours to re-edit Mobray's fiasco into something workable, and himself staves off the studio's shutdown by rallying all the Colossal employees to stand firm against being removed from the premises.
Based on a Saturday Evening Post story by Clarence Buddington Kelland, this is a light-hearted satire of the movie industry, the sort of amiable farce in which everyone--even the most contentious of characters--is shown to be basically decent underneath.
