Star Movie: Alice Adams

on BBC Two England

Starring Katharine Hepburn and Fred MacMurray.

Alice Adams is young, vivacious, pretty - and poor. In her small American town she finds her social 'disadvantage' outweighs her attributes. And when she falls in love with the town's most eligible bachelor her troubles really begin. Katharine Hepburn gives one of her most stylish performances in the title role in this vivid portrait of Americana.
