Acclaimed comedy of manners centred on a radical student (Edward Clements) whose assimilation by a group of upper-class New Yorkers serves as a catalyst that alters their lives.

Highly acclaimed comedy of manners centred on a radical student whose assimilation by a group of young New Yorkers serves as a catalyst to alter his and their lives. Gathering in a Manhattan apartment, the group of friends meet to discuss social mobility, Fourier's socialism and play bridge in their cocoon of upper-class society - until they are joined by a man with a critical view of their way of life.
