Plot: Detroit, the early 1960s. Curtis Taylor, Jr., a car salesman, breaks into the music business with big dreams. He signs a trio of young women, the Dreamettes, gets them a job backing an R&B; performer, James "Thunder" Early, establishes his own record label and starts wheeling and dealing. When Early flames out, Curtis makes the Dreamettes into headliners as the Dreams, but not before demoting their hefty big-voiced lead singer, Effie White, and putting the softer-voiced looker, Deena Jones, in front. Soon after, he fires Effie, sends her into a life of proud poverty, and takes Deena and the Dreams to the top. How long can Curtis stay there, and will Effie ever get her due?

Quotes:

Lorrell Robinson: [as Early is kissing her] That feels nice... I mean it feels funny! You're married, aren't you?::James 'Thunder' Early: Everybody knows Jimmy's married, baby.::Lorrell Robinson: Well, then, you get your married hands off!

Effie Melody White: So... Deena's going to sing the lead 'cause you like the way she looks? Am I ugly to you, Curtis?::Curtis Taylor Jr.: Baby, come on! You know how I feel about you, come on. Don't make it personal.::Effie Melody White: Well, what am I supposed to do? Deena's beautiful, and she's always been beautiful... but I've got the voice, Curtis! I've got the voice! You can't put me in back; you just can't!

Lorrell Robinson: You got the same wig I got?::Effie Melody White: Yeah.::Lorrell Robinson: You got same the same dress I got?::Effie Melody White: Yeah.::Lorrell Robinson: [Drags it out] Then shut up!

Curtis Taylor Jr.: Deena, you know why I chose you to sing lead? Because your voice... has no personality. No depth. Except for what I put in there.

James 'Thunder' Early: [singing] Jimmy want a rib! Jimmy want a steak! Jimmy want piece of yo chocolate cake!

Effie Melody White: Tell me something, Curtis. Do you think it's right to promote an amateur performer over a professional?::Curtis Taylor Jr.: I'm not sure what this is about...::Effie Melody White: It's about fairness, Curtis. It's about people paying their dues. Isn't that what you keep telling me? "Get in line, Effie. Wait your turn". So why am I sitting here without so much as a B-side on a 45, when an amateur like Martin Luther King Jr. gets his own freaking album? I mean, can he even sing?

C.C. White: Isn't music supposed to express what people are feeling?::Curtis Taylor Jr.: Music is supposed to sell.

Effie Melody White: That's right Curtis. You stopped me once, but you'll never stop me again. [sings] 'Cause this time, Effie White's gonna win!

James 'Thunder' Early: Hey, where you going? You can't leave me, girl! I love you!::Lorrell Robinson: [sings] And Lorrell loves Jimmy, / Lorrell loves Jimmy, / Lorrell loves Jimmy, it's true. / But Lorrell and Jimmy are through.::[speaks]::Lorrell Robinson: "I got a show to do", remember, baby?::[sings]::Lorrell Robinson: Oh, baby, I got a show to do!

Effie Melody White: [sings] And I am telling you/ I'm not going./ You're the best man I'll ever know./ There's no way I can ever go./ No, no, no, no way... / No, no, no, no way I'm living without you./ I'm not living without you./ I don't want to be free./ I'm staying, I'm staying,/ And you, and you,/ you're gonna love me.
