Pennies From Heaven (1981) #WarnerArchive #WarnerBros #PenniesFromHeaven Steve Martin stars as a womanizing sheet-music salesman in this lip-sync “musical“ based on the drama by Dennis Potter (The Singing Detective). During the Great Depression, a married sheet-music salesman falls in love with another woman and uses cheery songs from that era to imagine a better life for himself. Steve Martin, Bernadette Peters and Jessica Harper form the triangle of this razzle-dazzler in which the era’s songs are used to illuminate the inner lives of its characters in contrast with their grim outer reality.
