Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A Place in the Sun is a 1951 drama directed by George Stevens and starring Montgomery Clift, Elizabeth Taylor, and Shelley Winters. It is the second film adaptation of Theodore Dreiser's 1925 novel An American Tragedy (after Josef von Sternberg's 1931 film of that title).George Eastman (Clift) is a poor relative of the rich Eastman family, which owns a clothing factory. George, having chanced to meet his uncle while working as a bellhop at a Chicago hotel, plays on the family connection and gets an entry-level job in the packaging room, but afterwards is apparently forgotten by the rest of the Eastmans. He strikes up a friendship with a fellow employee, mousy Alice Tripp (Winters, who'd been a blonde sexpot in her previous films and needed a heavy dose of Hollywood Homely to play Alice). Although employee romances are strictly forbidden at the Eastman factory, Alice and George are both lonely, so they start seeing each other anyway.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Right after Alice lets George go all the way, he discovers his Uncle Charles hasn't forgotten about him after all; he lands a promotion at the factory, and with it an invitation to a party that the Eastmans are hosting for the local smart set. There, he meets the ridiculously beautiful and wealthy Angela Vickers (Taylor). They quickly fall in love, and suddenly a glittering future is in reach for George: marriage into wealth and society, advancement in his family's company, everything he wants. Unfortunately for him, Alice is pregnant, and she isn't willing to step aside and be forgotten. George finds himself driven to desperate measures to secure the fulfillment of his dreams.A Place in the Sun was a huge commercial and critical success, earning nine Academy Award nominations and winning six (including Best Director for Stevens). Winters, who'd spent her career playing hot blondes, started getting more serious roles in films like The Night of the Hunter. Taylor, who'd been a child star for years and then an ingenue, was also confirmed as a serious dramatic actress.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) | |

A Place in the Sun / int_1f6983f7 | comment |
Ambiguous Situation: It's definitely true that George took Alice out on the lake in order to murder her—he admits as much. It's also definitely true that he did not hit her on the head or throw her in the water—Alice fell out of the boat accidentally. But the film cuts away, and we're not shown how hard George tried to save Alice, or whether he did at all. | |

Historical Hero Upgrade: George is pretty much a Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds type who you can't help but feel sorry for and empathize with, in spite of his actions. His Real Life counterpart was a selfish SOB—unlike the ambiguity depicted in the film and its source novel, Chester Gilette most certainly murdered his pregnant girlfriend to continue his womanizing and social-climbing, the better to avoid the responsibilities of marriage and fatherhood. | |

Good Girls Avoid Abortion: Justified. The Hays Code prevented the mention of abortion, and it wasn't even legal back then. The vulnerable and very human Alice is apprehensive about obtaining an abortion — and if she had, the film would have ended or spun off into another plot. | |

After Alice and George go to the wedding registrar only to find that it's closed for Labor Day, there's a long static shot of a courtroom, which is superimposed on the next scene of George and Angela in a car. That's the courtroom where George is tried. Alice nearly falls out of the boat when she and George first set out, shrieking in terror. Just a few minutes later... | |

Faint in Shock: This film has what is widely considered perhaps the best faint in film history: Angela is told that her Love Interest George is likely to be sentenced to death by electric chair. She calmly thanks her mother for allowing her to hear this information before walking back into her bedroom. There, she stands dazed for a few seconds, and crashes hard and limp onto the floor without the even tiniest movement to break her fall, as though already utterly out like a light. | |

Very Loosely Based on a True Story: Dreiser's book and thus the film as well were loosely based on the 1906 Grace Brown-Chester Gillette murder case. | |

Early-Bird Cameo: In the very first scene of the film, George is thumbing a ride by the side of the road when a woman in a white Cadillac zooms by. That's Angela, who doesn't make her proper entrance until a little bit later. While visiting the Eastman plant offices for the first time, George encounters his cousin Earl on an elevator without either man being yet aware of the other’s identity. | |
