What happens
The Late George Apley is a 1947 American romantic comedy film about a stuffy, upper-class Bostonian who is forced to adjust to a changing world. It starred Ronald Colman in the title role and was based on John P. Marquand's novel of the same name and the subsequent play by Marquand and George S. Kaufman. A 45-minute adaptation starring Raymond Massey and Joanne Woodward was made in 1955, and aired as an episode of The 20th Century Fox Hour on CBS television. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
