"You Can't Take It With You" introduces us to the Sycamore family, a happily eccentric gang of snake collectors, cunning revolutionaries, ballet dancers and skyrocket makers. But when the youngest daughter brings her fiancée and his buttoned-up parents over for dinner, that's when the real fireworks start!
