Playwrighting is not a particularly lucrative profession, so the playwright in this movie must stay with a hospitable family when he visits a city in which his play is being shown. The family consists of a sparring mother and daughter. Even the ever-aloof writer is drawn into their genteel squabbles, and he also has a brief romance with the daughter. However, he wisely returns to his hometown, leaving the two to their ceaseless struggle. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi
