I DREAM TOO MUCH stars real-life opera diva Lily Pons as Annette Monard Street, a shy singer whose dreams of stardom come true when she falls in love and marries a young composer, Jonathan Street (Henry Fonda). Jonathan helps nudge Annette into the spotlight but finds himself green with jealousy when her professional prospects bloom while his continue to lag. With their love affair on the brink, Annette attempts to use her new star power to give Jonathan's flagging career a boost. Lifted by fine directing from John Cromwell (THE PRISONER OF ZENDA, OF HUMAN BONDAGE), one of Lucille Ball's earliest roles as a friend of the star-crossed lovers, and the outstanding singing of Ms. Pons, I DREAM TOO MUCH is bound to delight both music lovers and fans of classic Hollywood melodrama.
