In this family saga, Mrs. Parkington recounts the story of her life, beginning as a hotel maid in frontier Nevada where she is swept off her feet by mine owner and financier Augustus Parkington. He moves them to New York, tries to remake her into a society woman, and establishes their home among the wealthiest of New York's high society. Family and social life is not always peaceful, however, and she guides us, in flashbacks, through the rises and falls of the Parkington family fortunes.《帕金顿夫人》是Tay Garnett于1944 年在美国 导演，由葛丽亚·嘉逊,沃尔特·皮金,爱德华·阿诺德,阿格妮丝·摩尔海德,塞西尔·凯拉威,格拉黛丝·库珀,弗兰西斯·拉弗提,汤姆·德雷克,彼特·劳福德,丹·德亚,休·马洛威,赛琳娜·罗伊尔,福图尼奥·博纳诺瓦等出演,剧中使用英语对白,是一部剧情片电影。
