The Solid Gold Cadillac is a 1956 comedic movie directed by Richard Quine. The movie stars Judy Holliday as Laura Partridge, a small but enthusiastic stockholder in International Projects. She becomes concerned when she receives confusing proxy statements and decides to attend the company's annual shareholder meeting.
At the meeting, Laura questions the board of directors about their management practices and lavish expense accounts. Although she is mocked and dismissed by the board, Laura continues to speak out and gains support from other shareholders.
Meanwhile, Edward L. McKeever (played by Paul Douglas), a corporate lawyer representing the company, becomes intrigued by Laura's determination and begins to investigate her claims. With the help of McKeever, Laura exposes corruption within the company and ultimately forces the board of directors to resign, with Laura herself taking control of the company.
The movie uses Laura's unyielding perseverance and wit to critique the power dynamics of American corporations and the role of small shareholders. The Solid Gold Cadillac was well-received by audiences and critics alike, particularly for Holliday's performance as the determined and witty Laura Partridge.
