Adapted from Edith Wharton's classic novel, and now digitally restored, Terence Davies’ drama features an acclaimed performance by Gillian Anderson as a young woman looking to make a good marriage, drawn into a downward spiral when her honour and her love for another prevent her from accepting the advances of a wealthy banker.

The film proved Davies a master of period filmmaking and literary adaptation, and deserves to be regarded as one of the best British features of its era.
