The George Raft Story plot

"HOLLYWOOD'S CONFIDENTIAL STORY!! A MOVIE STAR TELLS ALL!"

This biographical film is about the life of George Raft (1895-1980), played here by Ray Danton. The story begins with young Raft coming to New York to seek his happiness. He becomes a dancer and is connected with figures from the underworld. He goes to Hollywood and becomes known for his role in Scarface (1932), after which he is always cast as a gangster. When he has had enough of these roles, he tries to change his character, which he succeeds in doing with his part in Some Like It Hot (1959). In between acts, we see Raft's relationships with five different women, including Betty Grable.
