Margaret Delafield (Katharine Hepburn) is a wealthy widow who endures a health scare and develops a close bond with her doctor, Marvin Elias (Harold Gould). When they begin a romance, families on both sides balk at the possibility of marriage between the older couple. Margaret's sons, Horton (David Ogden Stiers) and Chipper (Charles Frank), are especially disapproving, partly because Marvin is Jewish. Margaret remains undaunted, however, and presses forward with their plans to marry.

Audience Member Great movie!! Love Kate in topical roles. This one involves her very Anglo character marrying a Jewish man. Kate was always at her best when fighting against injustice!! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member cute but just a simple tv movie even with the talent involved, nothing special.
