Inventing the Abbotts

In a small Illinois village in the 1950s, everyone knows the gorgeous and rich Abbott sisters, but working-class brothers Jacey and Doug Holt are the lads that have the girls' hearts. While shy Doug only has eyes for Pamela, womanizing Jacey switches between sisters Eleanor and Alice. His mistreatment of the girls creates a rift between his family and the Abbotts' that turns Doug and Pamela's romance into something forbidden.
