Description
Cary Scott is a member of small town New England's well-to-do Country Club set. Recently widowed, her life is bounded by the strict social conventions of her class, making her feel both stifled and achingly lonely. Her friends and teenage children try to set her up with Stoningham's most eligible bachelors (a hypochondriac or an alcoholic) but when she meets Ron Kirby, a handsome younger outdoorsman, the two share an instant and unshakable attraction. However their romance soon becomes the subject of scuttlebutt, and Cary must summon the courage to break free from the snobbishness of her conservative world, or shun love in favour of acceptance.
Shot in glorious Technicolour,
Douglas Sirk's celebrated All That Heaven Allows is testimony not only to his reputation as one of Hollywood's most imitated directors, but his incisive observations of 1950s American society.
