Upset about a new Broadway musical's mockery of Greek mythology, the goddess Terpsichore comes down to earth and lands a part in the show. She works her charms on the show's producer and he incorporates her changes into the show. Unfortunately, her changes also produce a major flop.
Rita Hayworth in "Down to Earth" (1947, technicolor, full movie)
I was watching the thing last night and probably the most sad case of mistreatment in Hollywood was probably actress Francis Farmer, who did have some mental issues who knows what dealing with the studios and she had a sad ending. She was beautiful and talented.

I remember the movie where Jessica Lange played her.
Thanks!
Her much maligned “Tonight And Every Night” is really quite a gem.
