Synopsis:
This is the true story of Yuan Ling-yu, the first movie star of the 1930's. Hailing from an obscure background, she became the prima donna of the Chinese screen. Students worshipped her as a cult symbol. Men looked at her with dreamy eyes and women looked at her sideways and full of hate.

Yes, for nine years since her movie at 16, Yuan Ling-yu managed to star in 29 movies. Her roles were usually pathetic ones : girl student, rustic maid, factory hand, prostitute, socialite and authoress. And her endings were invariably tragic : incarceration in a prison, mental breakdown, forced marriages, starvation, illness and even suicide...... 

阮玲玉十六歲投身影壇，初時沒機會發揮，直到加入聯華公司接拍較嚴肅的電影後，演技才開始顯露。從此阮的事業發展順利，但感情道路卻十分坎坷。她先跟張達民相戀，張嗜賭如命，二人分手後，她還要付他贍養費。阮後來又跟電影公司老闆唐季珊一起，也不快樂，因為唐另有很多女人。最後張控告阮，唐通姦，阮承受不了輿論壓力，寫下"人言可畏"四字自殺身亡。
