Street of Dreams (film)
''Street of Dreams'' is a 1988 American action/thriller film directed by William A. Graham and starring Ben Masters and Morgan Fairchild. Made as a television film, ''Street of Dreams'' was originally aired on October 7, 1988, on CBS and was subsequently released on DVD on January 10, 2005. The role of a drug addict who—per Fairchild's remarks—"looks like hell" marked a departure for Morgan Fairchild, whose career had, up to that point, been defined by roles of glamour and sex appeal.
The film follows a laid-back private investigator Kyd Thomas (Ben Masters) who gets thrust into Hollywood's world of crime after he meets Laura Cassidy (Morgan Fairchild). Laura is a cocaine addict who Kyd saves from being beaten and raped and with whom he quickly enters a romantic relationship. The storyline is based on the books ''Good Night and Good-Bye'' and ''Kyd for Hire'' by American author Timothy Harris which chronicle stories of the life and adventures of a private investigator named Thomas Kyd. Harris has since claimed that he was credited on the film even though he "didn't really do anything on it", "didn't write it, and wasn't involved."〔Nolan, Tom.

==Morgan Fairchild's role==
Morgan Fairchild, known for her glamorous roles and often herself referred to as "glamorous"〔O'Connell, Joe. (Stars align for SXSW, Hall of Fame ), ''The Austin Chronicle'', February 22, 2008. Accessed April 13, 2010.〕〔Bobbin, Jay. (Our Planet Spoofs News-Show Seriousness ), ''Orlando Sentinel'', April 21, 1987. Accessed April 13, 2010.〕〔Sanello, Frank. "Talking with Morgan Fairchild", ''The Cedartown Standard'', September 27, 1988. Accessed April 13, 2010.〕 and a "sex symbol",〔Perala, Andrew. "The Facets of Fairchild", ''Anchorage Daily News'', October 7, 1988. Accessed April 13, 2010.〕 took on the role of cocaine addict Laura because she "liked the chance to play somebody who looks like hell."〔 Fairchild has stated in interviews that the role was "a real challenge" and that, even though she found it "humiliating"〔 and "scary"〔 to have circles drawn under her eyes for more realistic effect, she still considered it to be "a lot of fun to be working on something a little off the beaten track."〔 Fairchild stated that she would love to get more acting jobs that are antithetical to her image, such as "a bag lady or a scrub woman" but fears that filmmakers will not think to consider her for such a role.〔
