Isaiah Stern is a wealthy, but dying, toy manufacturer. Once more Stern has gathered together his grown sons to revise his will. Three of the four boys are used to these idiosyncratic changes and have come to accept them. The fourth son, a married psychologist, is heavily in debt and doesn't like his thin share of the pie, which sparks a confrontation. The remaining sons are a bachelor who runs the family store, an indecisive sort who still lives at home, and daddy's favorite, a closet homosexual.
Family Business has generally received negative reviews.
