Couldn't ask for bigger stars than that, in the 1930s... marion davies and leslie howard. When the family moves from kansas to new york city, daughter wants to find a crowd where she can belong. The problem is, dad got rich running a chain of 5&10 cent stores. And the people of the big city don't respect that, in spite of the effort the family makes. All these years dad has been so busy running the company, he doesn't see the troubles in his own family. His wife is spending time with another, and his daughter is running after a gentleman who is already engaged. Some drama when tragedy strikes, but it's self inflicted, so not sure how emotionally involved we can get. Story kind of takes some left and right turns. It's good! If you buy into it all. Directed by robert leonard. Nominated for two oscars... ziegfeld and divorcee.
