The Unforgettable Loretta, Darling

Loretta bursts onto Sunset Boulevard brimming with moxie and boy is she determined to make her dreams come true. Only Loretta is getting the backlot tour of Tinseltown - where the palm trees disappear, and the trash vans are parked up. It turns out that this town of dreams and make-believe is less chilled martinis and dashing fellas, more sticky floors and misbehaving men. But Hollywood has bitten off more than it can chew with Loretta, because there''s not just lipstick lurking in her beauty case and this may be her dream, but she''s stepped out from Hollywood''s nightmares. And Loretta Darling bites back.
