Featured review
Lizzie (Ruth Donnelly) worked for the Bentleys on Park Avenue. She quits in frustration and goes to the employment agency. When she encounters working middle class Joan Smith (Margaret Lindsay), she decides to work for her even at a lower pay. She starts helping the Smith family climb up until they even take over the Bentley estate.
I almost died when little Bobby says, "Mommy. Please buy this one." It's the only laugh in the movie and an outlier in many different ways. That needs to be a meme. The story is rather odd. For most of it, Lizzie never explains why she doing what she's doing. Then the movie does a big reveal and it comes out of left field. It's a soap opera move.
