A Jewish businessman who married a Christian and celebrated Christian holidays!
It didn't matter what the Lady's religion was in the picture, she represented a whole generation of southern women whom most of us called Grandmomma. They didn't leave the house without their gloves, hats and pocketbooks. For them to wear shorts or pants wasn't ladylike. Everytime I see that movie, I see my grandmother and to a certain extent, my mother.
That was one of the best movies I ever saw. I took my grandmother to see it when she came to America. She went back thinking the movies weren't trash after all *LOL*
