The film adaptation of the musical features several prominent female characters with names, including the lead, Aunt Mame, played by Lucille Ball. Her comical falling out and reconciliations with her actress friend Vera Charles (Bea Arthur), encouragement of the mousey Agnes Gooch (Jane Connell) to get out and live life, and breaking through to her in-laws, Mother Burnside (Lucille Benson) and Cousin Fan (Ruth McDevitt), and many more all seal this movie as a clear pass.
