Nancy Kelly and Phil Stanley spark a clubland collision
In a society orbit as Nancy Kelly, a Cass Street miss, meets Phil Stanley at the Empire room, city socialites and Linda Van Vliet orbit them. Nancy, torn between yearning for working-class roots and champagne tense glamour, feels outmatched as Linda asserts social power. The scene, filled with dance floor heat and barbed exchanges, ends with Nancy dancing away in a dreamlike thrill while contemplating her place among the gilded crowd.
