 This film is a comedy that makes great fun of small-town secrets, family feuds, politics, and gossip.The constant bickering between the Sinclairs and the Greshams, and the spectacle of the mayor's office bouncing back and forth between the two families, suggest a satire on the Democratic and Republican Parties.That, during the immediate past Federal election, Presidential Candidate George Wallace famously said, "There's not a dime's worth of difference between the two parties," might or might not be a coincidence.
