My One and Only is a 2009 comedy film loosely based on a story about George Hamilton's early life on the road with his mother and brother, featuring anecdotes that Hamilton had told to Merv Griffin. Griffin pitched the idea for the script, and had shepherded the project from idea to production, until his death in 2007. His company serves as one of the film's producers. My One and Only is directed by Richard Loncraine, written by Charlie Peters and stars Renée Zellweger as Hamilton's mother. In New York City in 1953, Ann Deveraux lives with her bandleader husband Danny, their 15-year-old... son George, and Ann's somewhat older effeminate son Robbie. Ann does not seem very interested in her children's lives; she does not even remember which school they attend. After catching Danny in an affair, Ann tells him she is leaving him and taking the children with her. She removes cash from her safe deposit box and sends George out with it to buy a Cadillac. The salesmen are suspicious, but Ann drops by later herself. Ann embarks with Robbie and George on a road trip through the United States, in search of a husband to fund a new life for her and her boys.
