THEIR STORY co (Not for publication) It's a Lemp family reunion, Ann, Kay, Emma and Thea, their husbands, Felix, Clint, Ernest and Ben, and their four baby daughters all visiting Papa Adam and Aunt Etta. Then the blow falls. Ben's new-found riches, a land-development in Florida, have been swept away by a hurricane, and with it all the money the townspeople of Briarwood had invested, with the Lemp name as their guarantee. Then Adam loses his job at the Music Foundation. How the family puts its shoulder to the wheel and pays back the money, and how Adam triumphs by being selected to conduct the International Beethoven Festival, makes this one of the most charming and delightful screen stories of the year.
