Pop-music favorites Frankie Laine and Billy Daniels head the cast of The Sunny Side of the Street. Terry Moore plays Betty Holloway, receptionist at a major TV station. Hoping to secure a break for her singer boyfriend Ted Mason (Jerome Courtland), Betty enlists the aid of Laine. Mason's career really takes off when a team of TV writers discover that he's the childhood sweetheart of Gloria Pelly (Audrey Long), the daughter of an important sponsor. For a while, it looks as though poor Betty has lost Ted to Gloria, but there's still a few reels (and production numbers) left to go. Also featured in the cast are TV commercial spokeswoman Toni Arden as herself, and, in a minor role, future Gunsmoke co-star Amanda Blake.
