Nick Rocco (Richard Conte) and his wife, Emily (Judy Holliday), are a happily married couple expecting their first child. But their home in Los Angeles is full of problems that Nick, who is a struggling writer, is too poor to fix. Emily convinces him to ask his father (Salvatore Baccaloni), an Italian immigrant and stonemason, to help with repairs in the house. However, father and son have longstanding grudges over Nick's refusal to attend church, and the men must confront their differences.

Nadya R 03/29/2023 Wonderful ingratiating stars, warm gentle story, a bit dated. See more 12/12/2014 It's a very quiet film, but a charming one. The particulars are dated (it features everything a pregnant woman should not do), but the story of two generations struggling to come to a middle ground will always be relevant.
