	The religion of Alan Alda, actor
		Alan Alda grew up as the only son of a successful television and film actor, and he was exposed to the theatrical world from an early age.
		Alda was reported to have "anguished" over the execution of Gary Gilmore by firing squad at the Utah State penitentiary, in spite of the trail of murder and cruelty left in the wake of Gilmore's homicidal rampages.
		Alda's films send more messages than Western Union, most of which should be marked "Address Unknown--Return to Sender." He moralizes at the same level as Jerry Falwell, Billy Graham, and Oral Roberts, without the fire and adrenaline-hyping electrification of a good evangelist.

		Robert Alda stars in this odd, melodramatic potboiler which looks at the rags-to-rich (and more riches) rise of one of America's greatest popular composers.
		Other problems include Alda himself (yes, he's Alan's dad...) who isn't completely up to the role, as well as the weak portrayal of George's brother Ira, a super-brilliant, super-important lyricist, who is here presented as a mere hanger-on and cheerleader for his brother, the big-shot genius.
		Robert Alda deserves to be remembered perhaps not for his work in this film but for his origination of the role of gambler Sky Masterson in the great musical Guys and Dolls.
