I'll See You in My Dreams (1951)

In the heart of the bustling city of Chicago, Gus Kahn, an ambitious working-class poet, steps through the doors of Wm Rossiter & Sons Music Publishers, seeking advice on the potential of his verses to be transformed into mesmerizing song lyrics. Grace Le Boy, a music demonstrator at the publishing house, finds herself intrigued by Gus's talent. Despite their initial friction, she recognizes the potential beneath the rough exterior of his poems and opts to lend him her aid. Grace's musical prowess breathes life into Gus's inaugural poem, striking a chord with the audience and skyrocketing into a hit. As their professional alliance endures, they fail to replicate their first success. Grace, with a selfless heart, decides that her music might be the hitch and encourages Gus to team up with other composers. Her ultimate dream is not to etch her name as a world-class composer, but to be known as Grace Kahn, despite Gus showing little romantic interest in her. As fate would have it, Grace’s wish becomes a reality, as Gus had always harbored feelings for her, hidden beneath his stoic demeanor. As Gus's success blooms with a multitude of composers, Grace remains his constant, spurring him on to seize opportunities or even chasing them down herself. However, their journey isn't without turbulence. The prickly partnership with composer Walter Donaldson, Gus's decision to move to New York for Florenz Ziegfeld Jr—leaving Grace behind, his involvement with Follies star Gloria Knight, the crushing blow of the stock market crash, and the Great Depression all test their bond. The changing musical landscape and the societal perception of Grace being the dominant figure in their relationship further threaten both Gus's career and their marriage. Yet, behind every great man, there stands a great woman. Despite their financial struggles and shaken foundation, Grace’s unwavering faith encourages Gus to rise from the ashes and reclaim his successful career. "I'll See You in My Dreams" is the inspiring story of a couple navigating the tumultuous waves of life, love, and music in an ever-changing world.
