Louisa

Hal Norton works as an architect. He lives with his wife Meg. One day they make a decision. They will take in Hal’s mother. The woman is called Louisa and she is a widow. Louisa moves into the house. The household takes it for a matter of care. But things are not as they expected. Louisa carries on with a life of her own. There are men in the town who take an interest in her. And there is more than one of them. She is happy enough with the attention. The family does not know what to do with the situation. The account is built on that bewilderment. Ronald Reagan and Ruth Hussey take the leads, with Spring Byington, Charles Coburn and Edmund Gwenn also in the cast, in Alexander Hall’s American film of 1950.
