Looking Forward (film)

Looking Forward is a 1933 American PreCode drama film starring Lionel Barrymore and Lewis Stone. Based on the Dodie Smith play Service, it depicts the desperate struggle of a London department store owner to save his business during the Great Depression.

Michael shows him his designs of striking furniture, which he believes could be manufactured and sold by the department store. Caroline insists on working in the store and living on her earnings. This latter development is welcomed by Geoffrey Fielding, Services assistant and Carolines admirer, as it lessens the social gulf between them. Together, the Services look forward to the future with optimism.
