Plot Summary: A family of rich liberal Upper East Siders

musical from the 1930's. The extended family of liberal
lawyer Bob includes a do-gooder wife, daughters, son,
grandfather, German maid, stepdaughter and even the
ex-husband. While the story concerns love and
engagements, a number of scenes are set in music to the
traditions of the old musicals where lines would lead
into songs and dances. and then things go to hell.

Notes: Natalie feels this is her worst performance. "Oh
God, I was so awful in that. My agents said, 'Well, you
just don't turn down Woody Allen.' But I was so wrong
because there was so much improvisation and I just
couldn't do it."
