'After the Ball' (named for another of her song hits) is ostensibly Tilley's
life story, filmed on a painfully low budget. All the usual showbiz clichés
are here. The most interesting scenes are Tilley's interactions with
various British and American theatrical figures. In New York City, she
works for impresarios Tony Pastor and Oscar Hammerstein: the latter is
not the lyricist, but his namesake grandfather. Sadly, this film doesn't
even make a token attempt to depict these men accurately. Pastor was
massively fat, and Hammerstein (the original) had an elaborate beard:
you'd never know it from the actors on offer here. The romantic male lead
is essayed by Laurence Harvey, as the titled Englishman who becomes
Vesta's match.
