What it’s about. Manhattan, il n’y a pas si longtemps, à Noël... Tom Townsend, un gauchiste des bas quartiers de New-York, s’introduit dans le cercle restreint de « la bande de Sally Fowler » (cinq filles et deux garçons) - des jeunes gens strictly Park Avenue, mais en manque cruel de chevaliers servants pour accompagner les débutantes aux bals du Plaza. Bourgeois et cultivés, ceux-ci se réunissent lors d’after-parties pour tromper l’ennui, parler politique ou de Jane Austen, deviser sur leurs histoires d’amour ou sur l’inévitable déclin de leur classe. Ou encore de l’avantage du col de chemise amovible. Bienvenue dans la « Urban Haute Bourgeoisie ».
