| Did the lifestyle represented by Hepburn and Tracy in this movie really qualify as "middle class" in 1967? They seem to occupy a mansion on a hill in San Francisco and employ a full time maid/cook and another part time person who works in their house. Looks like fabulous wealth to me, but then I know the difference in the classes has shifted since then. |

| The characters in the film definitely quality as upper-middle class. Let's call it upper-upper-middle class. | |

| That sounds about right. After all, consider the source: they're "middle class" in the British sense of being neither working class nor aristocratic toffs. :-) | |
