A wonderful story of a young woman caught between two worlds, what she wants and what she needs. This has got to be one of the best stories of all time. Ginger Rogers gives an outstanding performance of a young woman from the wrong side of the tracks that stands up to society and makes her way on her own.
It is incredibly forward thinking for the time period and yet it deals with struggles that seem to be timeless.
I give it as many stars as can be given.
