Элис Эдамс (1935)

The Adams family – a hardworking father and son, and a mother and daughter – live separate lives. The father and son are content working at a drugstore, while the mother and daughter strive for social status, often facing rejection. When the daughter finally finds a partner, the mother persuades the father to take a financial risk to seem wealthier. They then throw a fancy dinner to impress their new suitor, but it goes terribly wrong. The big question is: will this awkward attempt at sophistication scare him off?
