Trama
Mildred Pierce begins during the Great Depression in Glendale, California, with Mildred Pierce, a young mother of two daughters, Veda and Ray. After throwing her husband Bert out for his infidelity, Mildred finds herself a 'grass widow,' struggling to provide for her family. She turns to baking and job hunting, feeling that she's above the menial work available at an employment agency. Meanwhile, she begins an affair with Wally Burgan, an ex-business partner of her husband's, following dating advice from her neighbor Lucy Gessler. After a brief encounter with a wealthy socialite who offers her a housekeeping job, Mildred ends up at Cristofor's Café where Ida, the waitress, plays a role in shaping her future. Throughout the series, Mildred opens a restaurant, falls in love, and continues to strive for her daughter Veda's respect, despite Veda's narcissism.
