The Stork Club is a 1945 American musical comedy film directed by Hal Walker and starring Betty Hutton.

Curtis sends a letter to Judy at the Stork Club, informing her she now has a new luxury apartment, and a line of credit at a prestigious department store, with no strings attached.

Assuming he is unemployed, she convinces the maitre d' to hire him as a busboy, a position Bates quickly sabotages.

She promptly goes on a shopping spree, buying dresses and furs without knowing her benefactor's identity.

Judy phones Sherman Billingsley, the Stork Club's powerful but generous owner, and posing as gossip columnist Walter Winchell, tells him about a fantastic new band he must hear.

Billingsley offers them a job at the club, then tells Judy: "By the way, I'd know your voice anywhere—and I was having lunch with Winchell when you called."
