Budding New York director Harry, script writer George and actor Teddy move to L.A. when a Hollywood studio finally promises to produce a feature version of their festival award-winning short film. Their lack of living accommodation is solved when slick womanizer Harry's latest bar conquest, interior decorator Alice Kinney, 'helped' by her ex-actress mother, invites him and soon his mates to move in with her in the splendid villa of her grandfather, legendary director Alice Kinney, and get on great with Alice's brat daughters Isabel and Rosie. Alice's separated husband, music producer Austen, suddenly waves his objections to leaving L.A. when he smells competition, and returns uninvited 'for the girls', actually to oust Harry.—KGF Vissers
