Vincent Vacarri komponiert Rockmusik und wäre gern ein gefeierter Sänger, glaubt aber, er sähe dafür nicht gut genug aus. So baut er einen jungen Musiker zum umjubelten Schwarm der weiblichen Teenager auf und lässt ihn seine Lieder singen. Als es auf der Höhe des Erfolgs zum Bruch zwischen ihnen kommt, hat er schon wieder einen neuen hochtalentierten Schützling. Ray Sharkey spielt die Hauptrolle in Taylor Hackfords packendem Film aus der amerikanischen Rockszene. (Verleiher-Text)

Englisch Hackford has already demonstrated his interest in the behind-the-scenes of the American dream and its infinite ability to corrupt in this, his debut. Though his beginner's impatience is obvious, and thus he skips some scenes that would have been quite important in portraying the transformation of certain characters, but he makes up for it with his typical flair for incorporating seemingly unimportant details into the setting and characters. The scenes of the first successful performances of his tired, pomaded models are the tumultuous climax of every stage of this film, where the viewer enjoys the same exhilaration and satisfaction as the protagonist, having been along for the ride during his efforts to transform a total redneck into a soggy panty factory.
