Synopsis:

In the lower-middle-class Adams family, father and son are happy to work in a drugstore, but mother and daughter Alice try every possible social-climbing stratagem despite snubs and embarrassment. When Alice finally meets her dream man Arthur, mother nags father into a risky business venture and plans to impress Alice's beau with an "upscale" family dinner. Will the excruciating results drive Arthur away?

Academy Award-winner Katharine Hepburn ("The Philadelphia Story," "The African Queen") received an Oscar-nomination as a working-class small-town girl with social ambitions who falls in love with wealthy playboy Fred MacMurray ("Double Indemnity," TV's "My Three Sons"). Based on the classic Booth Tarkington novel. Nominated for Best Picture.

The misadventures of two social-climbing women in small town America.
