- Synopsis:
- Ivy (Abbey Lincoln), has been housekeeper and loyal confidante to the Austin family for nine years. When she surprises everyone by announcing that she is leaving, the whole family is devastated and will do anything to make her stay. They feel Ivy's reasons for leaving stem from the lack of a man in her life and so leading son Tim (Beau Bridges) hatches a plan to matchmaker her with debonair man-about-town Jack Parks (Sidney Poitier).
