A Self Made Wife (1923)

Directed by John Francis Dillon

Overview

Tim Goodwin and his wife Corrie are living in poverty when Tim’s oil well strikes it rich. He soon works his way to the top of the social scale, but Corrie doesn’t change at all—she stays a dour, drab woman with no social skills whatsoever. Tim gets so embarrassed by her that he hires a “social secretary” for her to teach her how to function in the social strata in which they find themselves.
