Fred Astaire and Burgess Meredith play Danny and Hank, two longtime friends and perennial students who play trumpet in their university band. Their friendship is tested when they hire a new manager, Ellen—played by the lovely Paulette Goddard (one of Chaplin's muses). Her arrival turns their professional partnership into a romantic rivalry. A major highlight of the film is the magnificent performance by Artie Shaw, who plays himself, showcasing the musical talent that made him a legend in real life. Second Chorus received two Academy Award nominations: Best Musical Score (Artie Shaw) Best Original Song for "Love of My Life" (Music by Artie Shaw, lyrics by Johnny Mercer).
