THE STARDUST KID
by Debora Hill
TONE:
A comedy drama, set in the 1960's. This is a film about rock
music, glamour, drugs, and the price of fame. Similar in style
and tone to BACKBEAT and THE DOORS, with the visual look and
feel of THE ROSE and A STAR IS BORN (the second version).
SET UP:
In the early 1960's, an aspiring rock musician comes to America
with his band only to discover the world isn't ready for him
yet. He meets and marries a young waitress and takes her back
to London. Five years later he is a star, they have a baby,
and their marriage is in tatters.
STORY LINE:
When Damion Bond leaves his wife and comes to the states for
a tour with The Stardust Band, he is a big star. She leaves
him and takes their baby, and he doesn't find out for several
months, since they are estranged. With the help of a celebrity
hairdresser in Chicago, he is able to win back his wife. Complications
occur when he nearly destroys the hairdresser's marriage by
seducing her. His wife Anya has made her way to San Francisco
during where she has handed a job as an illustrator at Rolling
Stone.
