Overview

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.

00:52:22 Funny, my name is Augustus.

01:03:40 It's not the snowstorm.
01:08:56 One more telegram, sir.
01:15:43 All right, thank you, Hannah. You go up. I'll be up before they're in bed.
01:20:34 Yours.
01:24:55 I must be still asleep! This is a nightmare. A scandal!
01:28:30 And how often have you been sick?
01:34:15 then a polo pony stumbles...
01:40:32 A most inconsiderate animal.
01:44:24 Oh, you're very kind, Lady Nora.
01:48:35 In half an hour.
01:53:34 Aspasia, wait... Susie!
01:58:58 Why are you crying?
