Radiating Disapproval on the Sofa

Uploaded for the Vintage Photos Theme Park theme of: SITTING ON THE SOFA
Although quite obviously a world apart, this photo always reminds me of a scene from one of my all time favorite movies, "Gosford Park".
In one scene, the young, open-hearted, tradesman's (wealthy) daughter, who has married into an extremely upper class family,(who despise her but need the money) is at a party and pleasantly greets the matriarch complimenting her on her "lovely dress". The matriarch barely deigns to answer, looks up and down at the young woman's dress, and moves away.
