One of director Douglas Sirk's best and most successful romantic melodramas of the 1950s, "All That Heaven Allows" movingly portrays a May-December romance between Cary Scott (Jane Wyman), an attractive widow, and handsome gardener-landscaper Ron Kirby (Rock Hudson). Exceedingly lonely since her husband's death, Cary throws conventional behavior to the winds and facing social ostracism by pursuing her romance with Ron, who is unjustly perceived as a fortune-hunter by Cary's friends and family--especially her priggish son Ned (William Reynolds).
