The Girl Can't Help It

A down-and-out gangster hires a down-on-his-luck agent to make his blonde girlfriend a recording star within six weeks. The unlikely duo takes on the music industry, navigating satire and rock 'n' roll chaos as they outwit their rivals and find love in the process. With Jayne Mansfield shining in her breakout role, this 1956 musical comedy is a joyous celebration of the genre that launched Little Richard's star and became one of the most potent tributes to rock music ever captured on film.
