Downtown

Downtown chronicles the fast-paced life and loves of Maureen "Smoky" O'Donnell, a magazine writer in 1960's Atlanta. Working at a frenetic city magazine called Downtown, Smoky experiences the sometimes violent reactions of a Southern city to the civil rights movement, hippie counterculture, the sexual revolution, and the war in Vietnam. The people she meets in the big city are worlds away from her childhood Irish working-class Corkie neighborhood of Savannah, Georgia. And the man she ends up with is quite the opposite of her first love, from the tony Buckhead section of old Atlanta society money. Take a trip back to bell-bottoms and go-go-boots in Downtown!
