Plot

Fanny Brice, now finishing her Broadway show after its success has come and gone in the midst of the Great Depression, finds only flowers and a divorce decree from her estranged husband Nicky Arnstein. Fanny and her confidant Bobby Moore are now out of work since Florenz Ziegfeld is not available to produce a new musical show. During a meeting with Bernard Baruch, her financial advisor, she meets his former secretary Billy Rose. When Fanny and Bobby go into nightclubs looking for material to "borrow", they hear a torch song in "More Than You Know" that was written by Rose. Although irritated by his pushy nature in trying to sell the song to her, Fanny soon records the song at a studio before being shocked to read in the newspaper that she will star in a show by Rose called Crazy Quilt.
