The Curious Savage, which premiered in 1950, brings the sweet charm of that period along with the social satire that accompanied it. Mrs. Savage’s greedy stepchildren send her to a sanatorium to “come to her senses” when she announces that she will spend her late husband’s ten million dollars on helping people to realize their dreams. Directed by Susan Voorhees, this timeless comedy asks an important question, “Is it insane to value kindness and affection when the world seems to reward greed and dishonesty?”
