Psychoanalysis by a drama coach threatens Paulette's movie career.

BRACKEN'S WORLD has one of the most realistic of its personal behind-the-scenes problems. Joe Don Baker stars as a suave member of the Mafia with the money, contact, and aggressiveness to move in circles frequented by young starlets. One of these Is Diane Waring (Laraine Stephens), who falls for him and the line that he is trying to break from the rackets and begin a legitimate business. The romance embarrasses the studio and distresses her family, but she can't seem to break it off.

The promise that Bracken's World put forth of showing the real behind - the scenes activity in Hollywood is further disipated in this melodramatic muddle. It's simply a murder mystery built around a driving director whose demanding energies create a legion of bitter enemies. When he is murdered during the filming of a violent World War II concentration camp sequence, the list of suspects reaches from secretary to stars. John Van Dreelan and Yvonne Wilder are featured.
