A flighty socialite neglects her family to promote a religious movement, and her husband and daughter suffer.
Sinekatalog’s take
George Cukor's comedy-drama, with Joan Crawford, Fredric March and Ruth Hussey, is dated but sharp, a stagey satire.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
