The title is bitterly ironic. This is a deep, gentle, melancholy film about an old couple whose children no longer have time for them.
Barkley Cooper (Victor Moore) and his wife Lucy (Beulah Bondi) call their grown children together to tell them that their home's about to be foreclosed. Who can take them in? This scene has a light tone; it could easily introduce a screwball comedy; instead it introduces what Orson Welles called "the saddest film ever made." None of the children can make room for both parents, so they separate and go to different households. Can they endure in cramped Depression quarters? Can Barkley maintain his self-respect after years of unemployment? Can Lucy adjust to life with her shallow daughter-in-law and conniving granddaughter? Can the couple ever live together again?
