Night and Day (1946)

 A rich guy drops out of law school to become a full-time composer. He becomes very successful, but due to his devotion to his work he neglects his wife.

Fake biopic ("based on the career of" is priceless) which is merely a vehicle for the songs of one composer. Amid the generally poor dramatics, the greatest flaw is that the protagonist lacks personality aside being a compulsive worker. The musical numbers, on the other hand, are competent, occasionally great.
