The Betsy
The Harold Robbins people. What you dream...they do!
Directed by Daniel Petrie
Produced by United Artists, Allied Artists Pictures
A melodramatic soap opera centered on automotive ambition and romantic entanglement within a wealthy dynasty, driven by scandal and desire rather than introspection.
Ruthless patriarch Loren hires racecar driver Angelo to build a more efficient vehicle against the wishes of his grandson. But things get even messier when Angelo romances two women in Loren's life -- his great-granddaughter and his grandson's mistress.
