Description

In 1932, Vivi and the Ya-Yas were disqualified from a Shirley Temple look-alike contest for unladylike behaviour. Many years later, they're "bucking 70" and still making waves. They persuade Vivi to send Sidda a scrapbook of girlhood momentoes entitled "The Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood."

Awards
