He accidentally joins a traveling acting troupe, and falls in love with Ginger Bolivar, who runs the troupe and stars in their Civil War melodrama. Don`s producer sees the play, and thinks it`s a comic masterpiece, and just what Don`s Broadway show needs. But when Ginger finds out she`s been played for a fool Don soon learns that humiliating the woman he loves is no laughing matter.
Includes a bonus feature-length documentary which goes behind the scenes of Frank Capra`s professional and family life. Hosted by Ron Howard.
