Confidentially Connie
1952
Starring
Van Johnson
A poor teacher and his
wife cannot afford to eat steak,
while the teacher's father is a rich ranch owner
who wants his son to return to the family business.
The father inadvertently
starts a price war
when he persuades a local butcher to sell his son meat at half
price.
In these days of anti-smoking lobbies
it is strange to see this film portray pregnant women smoking.
