. The original epic traces the rise and fall of assorted characters amidst the decadence and depravity of 1920s Los Angeles, as Tinseltown makes the transition from silent films to talkies. The trio at its center are Jack Conrad , a once beloved silent film star on the decline; the hard-partying, aspiring actress, Nellie LaRoy ; and Manny Torres , who bonds with Nellie over his dreams of achieving Hollywood greatness during his journey from assistant to executive.
