But acting and singing sensation Ricky Nelson was destined to battle love, loss and redemption before falling from grace in one of Hollywood's most compelling and tragic tales. Hollywood, 1958. TV's most beloved, All-American family, The Nelsons, entertain the world, dramatizing their picture-perfect lives on the wholesome Ozzie & Harriet Show. But as the series' young stars. David (Anthony Lemke) and Ricky (Greg Calpakis), enter their teen years, the seemingly flawless Nelson family crumbles under stem patriarch Ozzie's (Jamey Sheridan) battle for authority. After Ricky outshines his family as a breakout singing talent and international movie star, the Nelsons' unity is forever fractured as Ozzie's efforts to manage his son's career veer out of control, costing Ricky the woman he truly loves. Distancing himself from his father, Ricky soon falls victim to the entertainment worlds lure of sex and drugs, and a career filled with unparalleled promise now heads for unavoidable disaster. When Ricky falls in love again and marries Kris Harmon, another child of Hollywood, he abandons his wild lifestyle, and Kris joins the Nelsons' TV series. But Ricky’s second chance comes too late - Ozzie & Harriet is cancelled and another one of Ozzie's overbearing publicity stunts backfires. Amidst mounting bills and no hope of surviving as the teen idol he once was, Ricky stages one final, brave comeback attempt against all odds, abandoning his squeaky-clean 1950s persona. However, when Ricky's resurgent career finds critical success, his marriage tails. Ironically, just as Ricky gets his life back on track by capitalizing on the nostalgia of his heyday, a tragic New Year's Eve plane crash suddenly takes one of music and television's foremost pioneers forever.
