    After injuring his hip on the icy steps in front of the Stanley's home, Sheridan Whiteside, infamously abrasive critic, subjects the family to his constant complaints and meddling over the Christmas holiday. His schemes include a plan to kill the burgeoning romance between his assistant Maggie Cutler (Davis) and local reporter Bert Jefferson. Hilarious and fast-paced, the film shows Davis in a rare comedic setting.
