The
eccentric wealthy Pidgeon family prepare for Christmas in their
usual lavish style, but the head of the family James
C. Pidgeon (Eugene Pallette) is facing bankruptcy.
In
order to impress their friends and neighbours during the holiday season they
adopt a Christmas Charity case Anthony Marchand (Joseph
Schildkraut), a washed-up
actor with a drinking problem who has attempted suicide.
But
they also invited Florie Watson (Ona Munson) but only because,
unbeknown to her, she is the beneficiary of the Pigeons wealthy uncle’s will,
in order to prevent her from being found by the lawyers.
But
when the story breaks in the newspapers they leave the city for a place the
country, so will being in close proximity in a remote house make them continue
the deceit or will they learn the truth gift of giving.
